TV Globo commentator and Flamengo's historic idol, Maestro Júnior, criticized striker Wallace Yan's stance after his expulsion in the Rubro-Negro's 1-0 defeat to Bahia, last Sunday (5) , in the 27th round of the Brazilian Championship. The former player also made an appeal to the coaching staff to guide the young athlete.


During his post-match commentary, Júnior emphasized that Wallace Yan's behavior could jeopardize his future at the club . The player received his second yellow card late in the match and, upon leaving the field, kicked objects and complained about the refereeing.


"This isn't the first time this has happened. He's managed, in such a short time as a professional, to achieve a form that will be difficult for him . He's causing problems with players; there's no point in getting angry now. The coaching staff needs to sit down with him and show him the right path, because he's a great player, but not with this behavior," the former player stated.


WALLACE YAN RETURNS TO ACTING

The match against Bahia marked Wallace Yan 's return after nearly a month out. His last appearance had been on September 14th against Juventude, when he played for just over five minutes. Since then, he has been on the bench in five consecutive matches, not being called upon against Estudiantes (twice), Vasco, Corinthians, and Cruzeiro.


NEXT APPOINTMENT

With the loss, Flamengo dropped to second place in the Brazilian Championship, level on 55 points with Palmeiras, who lead the league in terms of wins. The team returns to action on October 15th at 7:30 pm (Brasília time) at Nilton Santos Stadium to face Botafogo in the Rio derby.

The most expensive signing in Flamengo's history, striker Samuel Lino was once again the target of criticism from the red-black fans . After the 1-0 defeat to Bahia, last Sunday (5), in the Brazilian Championship , the player's name was graffitied on one of the walls of the club's headquarters, in Gávea, south of Rio de Janeiro.


The graffiti, "$. Lino peladeiro," expresses the dissatisfaction of some fans with the striker's recent performances , which have been inconsistent since his arrival at the club. In addition to the player, the protest also targeted Flamengo president Luiz Eduardo Baptista, known as Bap, who was called "negligible."


FILIPE LUÍS COMES TO THE DEFENSE


Despite the pressure on the player, coach Filipe Luís once again defended the striker after the game. The coach praised Lino's effort, especially considering that Flamengo had been playing with ten men since the 15th minute of the first half, following the sending off of defender Danilo.

" It's difficult to judge a player in a game where we were down so early. He had to help a lot in the marking and still created chances. Sometimes, there's a fine line between scoring and not scoring. Unfortunately, he didn't score, and then we ended up conceding," said Filipe Luís.


SECOND POSITION AND CLASSIC

With the result, Flamengo dropped to second place in the Brasileirão with 55 points, the same number as Palmeiras, who lead with one more win. The team will now return to action on October 15th against Botafogo at Nilton Santos Stadium at 7:30 pm. The squad was given Monday off after returning to Rio.

Bahia defeated Flamengo 1-0 , and Rogério Ceni revealed that the team's strategy was inspired by Cruzeiro. The coach emphasized that the selection of quick players to exploit space ended up being decisive , especially in the play that resulted in Danilo's sending-off in the first half.


According to Ceni, Cruzeiro had caused Flamengo problems by exploiting Kaio Jorge and full-back William's movements in midfield. With this in mind, Bahia used Ademir and Thiago to fulfill similar roles. It was during one of these plays that Thiago was fouled by Danilo, who was sent off after just 12 minutes.


" We made a good choice in our strategy, trying to play with Thiago and Ademir to exploit their speed . So much so that the sending-off came from a long ball, which is how we saw Cruzeiro hurt Flamengo the most," said the coach.


EXPULSION OF DANILO

Ceni emphasized that the set play didn't result in a direct goal, but it did change the balance of the match. With an extra player for almost the entire match, Bahia managed possession better and scored the winning goal through Willian José. " This led to the sending off, which from then on made a balanced game easier , making things a little more favorable for us," the coach added.


NEXT APPOINTMENT

Flamengo , which dropped to second place after the setback, will return to action on October 15th, after the FIFA International Matchday. The team will face Botafogo at Nilton Santos Stadium at 7:30 pm for the 28th round of the Brasileirão . The team will have Monday off after returning to Rio de Janeiro.
