Flamengo said goodbye to the Club World Cup early after being defeated 4-2 by Bayern Munich this Sunday (29) in the United States. The result, of course, frustrated the fans, but it did not erase the red-black team's good performance on American soil. On the field, the team competed, created chances and managed to even the score against a world-class opponent.
The match was intense from the start, with both teams proposing the game. Bayern, more efficient in finishing, knew how to take advantage of the spaces left by Flamengo in key moments of the match . Rubro-Negro, on the other hand, demonstrated tactical organization and courage to face their rival on equal terms, but failed in decisive plays, which ended up costing them a place in the quarterfinals.
In an interview after the match, midfielder Jorginho , who scored Flamengo 's second goal from the penalty spot, spoke about the team's attitude and made it clear that the feeling is not just one of frustration.
Jorginho on Flamengo vs Bayern: "My personal feeling is that it was a very even game, it was a very competitive game."
Jorginho's goal, his first in a red-and-black shirt, came at a time when Flamengo was still trying to react. Despite the already unfavorable score, the team did not give up and continued to seek the result until the end. The penalty kick converted by the midfielder shows that the team remains confident even in the face of adversity. Jorginho said after the game: "We always have to be ourselves, but not naive enough to make mistakes that could lead to the opponent scoring a goal, right? So it's a lesson we learn from."
Jorginho did not shy away from his responsibility when commenting on the mistakes made by the team during the match. The midfielder was direct in pointing out what he called "naivety", detailing inattentive moves that ended in goals for the opponents. The Germans knew how to exploit Flamengo's defensive flaws and were clinical when it came to defining the plays. The German superiority was more in precision than in any supposed technical mastery, in Jorginho's own view.
Discussions about a new contract between the number 10 and Mengão came to light at the beginning of the year, but the idea was left aside by the club.
