The club races against time

After weeks away due to an injury, the Uruguayan midfielderGiorgian De Arrascaeta is close to returning to the field. The player, who is a key player in the Flamengo, has entered the final phase of recovery, and the expectation within the club is that his return will occur in the next matches. Arrascaeta suffered a muscle injury that ruled him out of the last rounds of the Brazilian Championship and compromised his participation in other important competitions, such as the Libertadores.
The midfielder's absence was greatly felt, as he is considered one of the players most creative and decisive of the red and black cast. However, the club's medical department has been working intensely to ensure his full recovery, without rushing to put him on the field before he is 100% fit.
According to information from the club, Arrascaeta is in the last phase of his treatment, which involves transition work with physical preparation. This means that the Uruguayan has already overcome the most intensive care phase and is now focusing on regaining his physical shape and getting back into his game, something fundamental to his style. Flamengo has adopted a cautious approach to avoid any type of relapse, a common procedure when it comes to muscle injuries, especially in players who play such a dynamic and creative role on the field.
This last stage involves activities such as light running, muscle strengthening exercises and even ball training in reduced spaces, without the pressure of a competitive game. Depending on how the athlete responds to these stimuli, he may be released to train with the rest of the squad in the coming weeks.
Tite's decision not to define starters and reserves at this time shows a clear observation strategy
|
The cast of Flamengo completed the third day of preparation for the game against Bahia, valid for the quarter-finals of the Copa do Brasil. This Saturday's activities (07) were led by coach Tite, who chose not to define starting or reserve teams during collective training. The strategy adopted was to use the session for tests and observations, aiming to adjust the team and analyze the options available for the next appointment.
The coach, whose characteristic is detailed work, took the opportunity to do several tactical variations and evaluate the performance of players in different positions. With the tight schedule, Tite has been looking for alternatives to keep the squad competitive amid the various competitions that the club competes in. The decision not to form defined teams indicates that he is looking for solutions for possible changes to the team, whether due to physical issues, suspensions or injuries.
Another relevant point of this training was the chance to observe the athletes' behavior on the field without the pressure of a previously established structure. Tite, known for his thorough analysis and focus on collective behavior, believes this approach offers a clearer view of how players may react in different game situations. Thus, the absence of a clear separation between starters and reserves allowed for a more flexible dynamic, allowing everyone the chance to show their value under more balanced conditions.
These tests are especially important, considering that the< a href="https://gazetadourubu.com/noticia/bastidores-pegando-fogo-antigos-members-do-conselho-podem-atuar-novamente-pelo-flamengo?" target="_blank"> Flamengo has faced injury problems throughout the season. The club's medical department is working intensely to recover essential players for the squad, and the technical committee knows that it will be necessary to have the entire group available to remain competitive in the final stages of the Copa do Brasil and the Brazilian Championship.
< With the game against Bahia approaching, the observations made in training should directly influence Tite's choices for the match. The coach is attentive to the physical conditions of the players, as the sequence of games requires an effective rotation to avoid excessive wear and tear on the main names in the squad. So, even without defining a starting team in training, Flamengo can already be expected to enter the field with some strategic changes.Coach says the club works to avoid physical problems, but injuries end up being inevitable

Flamengo beat Bahia 1-0 this Wednesday (29) in the first leg of the quarter-finals of the Copa do Brasil. In the match, two Mais Querido players left the field due to injuries, midfielder Nico De La Cruz and striker Michael, who returned to the red and black team last week after playing in Saudi football, where he was led by Jorge Jesus. p>
The frequent injuries in the red and black team has been worrying the technical committee. In the post-game interview, Tite stated that the club works to ensure that the players are in good physical shape and avoid injuries, but due to the sequence of games Flamengo, become inevitable.
“Maybe we don't have enough time to talk regarding how much it influences the athlete. And how much we work on this so that we can make decisions without exposing the athlete or their health. It inevitably happens and it hurts,” said the coach. Tite commented on the case of Michael who, after returning, started the match against Red Bull Bragantino and played the 90 minutes, something that, according to the coach, was not supposed to happen, but was necessary due to the physical problems of the Mengão squad.
“We needed Michael because we didn't have one and he played the whole game there (against Bragantino). I wasn't supposed to play the whole game. He came with good will and was decisive. He was almost going to score the second goal, it wasn't a foul. It was nothing, he removed the body. Just for the record. One decisive player and you lose in the sequence. We try to preserve as much as possible, but it's tough.
With the injuries to Michael and De La Cruz, Flamengo now has seven players in the medical department. In addition to the duo, Everton Cebolinha, Matías Viña, Pedro, Gabigol and Arrascaeta are also recovering from injuries. Shirts 9, 99 and 14 suffered muscle injuries and should return in September. Cebolinha ruptured the Achilles tendon in his left leg and will only return next year, as does Viña, who had a ligament rupture in his knee and a fractured tibia.
