Flamengo will be forced to make more changes to the starting lineup in the ninth round of the Brazilian Championship, against Athletico-PR, this Sunday. But, in addition to the new absences, the field spoke louder to coach Tite. With Luiz Araújo in a good phase, Gerson's position had to change, even if against the boss's wishes.


What happened?


The will was not change Gerson's position. After the midfielder returned from kidney surgery, Tite found him a kind of right midfielder, resuming the starting position he had before the problem. The team evolved with this new idea and started an important sequence of six victories.


Tite gave up the scheme with two wingers and Pedro. The center forward was joined by Everton Cebolinha in the attack and saw Gerson floating a lot in the middle and on the right side.

Against Athletico, the field will speak louder. Without Igor Jesus and Cebolinha, new injured players on the list of 10 absences, Gerson will be relegated to the position of the young baseman, while Luiz Araújo will form the offensive trio with Pedro and Bruno Henrique.


"Yes, because the field speaks. More than the coach's will", said Tite

Luiz Araújo is an important player at Fla. He is the athlete most used by Tite in the squad and has only been left out of one match in the 43 games under the coach's command so far. The number 7 is seen as fundamental. The player is even considered one of the "starters" by the committee, even though he is currently a reserve. He started 22 of the 42 games he played for Flamengo.

The striker is the player who scored the most goals off the bench. He has 11 direct participation in goals, with seven balls in the net and four assists.

"Luiz is an athlete that we also have as one of the starters. It's a shame that we can only enter with 11. The safest of everything is that we have given the same content to everyone. It's our safety. When the athletes enter, they are already in the movement routine",  César Sampaio, Tite's assistant.

Luiz Araújo will have the chance as a starter later. of about a month and a half. The last time was in the defeat to Botafogo, when he spent 66 minutes on the field. Flamengo takes the field at 4pm (Brasília time), at the Ligga Arena.

O Flamengo beat Juventude 4-2 this Saturday (26), at Maracanã. The expulsion of Nenê, a former Vasco midfielder, became one of the main topics on social media. Gustavo Machado, a lip reading specialist, published a revealing video a> the conversation between the athlete and the referee Bráulio da Silva Machado.


“What question did I ask you, man**? I asked a question, don't do that. Look at the VAR there. Here's the audio. I was talking to you. Why are you going to do this to me? For God's sake, I was just talking. Look what you're doing, Bráulio. Are you going to do this to me?” Nenê said to referee Bráulio da Silva Machado.


The referee reported that he felt offended by the swear words. During the incident, Nenê asked Gerson, captain of Flamengo, for help: “Talk to him, Gerson. I just asked one question and he gave me two cards”, explained the Juventude midfielder.

In the 30th minute of the second half, Bráulio scored a free kick for Flamengo at the edge of Juventude's area. Upset with the decision, Nenê questioned the referee and received a yellow card. After insisting, he was warned again and ended up expelled.


“It's difficult to talk about a hothead, because it's an unbelievable thing. I asked how VAR changes a corner kick to a goal kick (in favor of Flamengo) and I got yellow. So I said: “I can’t ask a question, dammit?” I never spoke towards him. I didn’t swear and he automatically gave me a second yellow card”, said Nenê, shortly after the match against Flamengo.

VITÓRIA DO FLAMENGO

Nenê was unable to prevent Juventude's defeat. Michael opened the scoring for Flamengo, but Gilberto equalized for the visitors. Flamengo regained control and extended it to 3-1 with Gabigol and Arrascaeta. Juventude scored withEdson Carioca, but Gonzalo Plata closed the score.
