O Flamengo started the 2024 season very well under the command of Tite and has already won the first title of the year: the Guanabara Cup. However, the fans' expectation is to win the big titles at the end of the season and return to the top. In this way, commentators Renato Rodrigues and Léo Bertozzi, from ESPN, projected the success of Most Wanted in competitions.
“There’s a coach, there’s a squad. It's not that Flamengo has the best squad in Brazil, it has the best squad in South America. Flamengo enters any Libertadores and the expectation is to win at least the semi-final, being very conservative. It won't always happen, like last year for example. But the general thing is to look and think 'Brazilians have to compete, Libertadores have to compete”, said Léo Bertozzi.
GREAT EXPECTATIONS FOR THE BRAZILIAN CHAMPIONSHIPRenato Rodrigues already understands that the style do Mais Querido with Tite enhances the chances in the Brazilian Championship. After all, the first placed teams are usually the teams with the best defense and, when they won the competition in 2011 and 2015, the coach set up great defensive systems.
“I think that, with these characteristics, it is even more for the Brazilian. I understand the expectations regarding the Libertadores and Copa do Brasil, but it is the World Cup. You no longer have 100% control in football and things can happen in the knockout stages. I think that in this regard, the teams that concede few goals in the Brazilian Championship are at the forefront. Every time Tite was Brazilian champion he had the best defense in the championship. So that's it, Flamengo is being criticized”, said Renato Rodrigues.
FOCUS ON THE NEXT MATCHWith the Carioca semi-finals defined, the Mais Querido squad returns to training this Monday (4) to start preparing for the match against Fluminense. Remembering that the Rubro Negro players had Sunday (3) off, after beating Madureira and winning the Guanabara Cup undefeated.
