The coach highlighted the need for an exceptional performance: “It's still a dream and it's true that it's a little closer than it was a few days ago, but it's going to be very difficult. We have to play a tremendous game, give our all and count on everyone. It will be a celebration and a historic opportunity”, he stated.



REMEMBERING THE FIRST MEETING

In the first game of the quarter-finals, held at Maracanã, Peñarol had already gained an advantage by beating CRF 1-0, with a goal from Javier Cabrera scored in the 13th minute.

Forward Carlinhos was expelled from the match against Grêmio this past Sunday (22), in a questionable move, where the referee presented him with a straight red card without even reviewing it in the VAR. When leaving the field, the player punched the equipment cabin and referee Matheus Candançan reported the athlete's attitude in the match summary. Thus, the number 22 runs the risk of being punished by the STJD.

“Expelled for violent conduct when he slapped Walter Kannemann in the face outside the ball dispute. He needed medical attention and continued in the match. After the expulsion, on the way to the locker room, the player threw a punch in the var review area, breaking the acrylic”, says the justification for the expulsion of the center forward in the summary.


In this way, Carlinhos must be reported in two articles. The first, which the referee interpreted as aggression against Kannemann, is 254-A:  “performing physical aggression during the match, test or equivalent”. The attack on the cabin where the VAR monitor is located will be in article 219, which talks about "damaging the sports venue, headquarters or premises of the sports entity".


Thus, the punishment provided for the punch is a suspension of 30 to 180 days, a fine of R$ 100 to R$ 100 thousand and compensation for damages caused.

VICTIM OF RACISM

When leaving the field after being sent off, Carlinhos was a victim of racism from Grêmio fans. The fan allegedly shouted "little monkey" at the red-black striker and Mais Querido even released a statement demanding action from the CBF.

In Flamengo's last game, the team's performance brought to light a series of worrying issues, especially with regard to the starting goalkeeper. The defeat not only removed the team from the possibility of winning three important points in the Brazilian Championship, but also raised doubts about the emotional and technical state of the goalkeeper. According to content creator @falsonove2.bsky.social, the impact of the match goes beyond the result on the scoreboard. He states that Flamengo not only lost the match, but may have compromised the confidence of their goalkeeper for future competitions, especially in highly relevant tournaments, such as cups.

Flamengo is under the command of the coach Tite for more than a year, and despite some phases of evolution in the team, the latest performances are far from reflecting what was expected with the coach's arrival. The game in question, which culminated in this defeat, revealed weaknesses not only in the defensive sector, but also in the emotions of some athletes, especially the goalkeeper. A position already naturally marked by pressure, failures at decisive moments can have a significant impact on the future performance of those who defend the team's goals.


FLAMENGO HAS SERIOUS PROBELMS

@falsonove2's speech echoes a real concern in the sports world. A goalkeeper, who should be the last solid barrier on the field, can see his confidence shaken by a performance below expectations, and this is directly reflected in the next matches. If Flamengo, as he suggests, lost "the goalkeeper of the cups", this means that the team may have to deal with a new challenge: how to rebuild the morale and confidence of an essential player in the decision-making scenario.

< This situation becomes even more complex when we remember that Flamengo does not have many experienced names on the bench to replace the starting goalkeeper in important competitions. Confidence in the squad, especially in a goalkeeper, is essential for the team's good progress. A goalkeeper without confidence tends to hesitate in crucial moments, and in high-level football, this can cost titles.

This analysis does not take away the responsibility of coach Tite, who has been in charge of Flamengo for more than a year. year. He has had enough time to get to know the squad, implement his philosophy and create tactical alternatives for adverse situations. However, the impression that remains is that the team, in decisive moments, still fails to deal with the pressure. And this affects both the collective and the individual.
