After the end of the victory over Flamengo, Olimpia published on its social networks the motivational video produced by the club to show the players before facing Mais Querido. The Paraguay team achieved an unexpected result by winning 3-1, when the carioca entered the field with an advantage, since he won the first leg by 1-0.
The video has a narration in Spanish that is accompanied with various images of the team and others. Right at the beginning, it is shown how most Brazilian commentators believed that the round of 16 of Mengão would not be so difficult. "The Brazilians said that they would have an easy game. That in Maracanã the classification would arrive", said the narrator, showing a video of a Brazilian journalist reacting, laughing, who would be the rival of Mais Querido: "Flamengo already in the quarterfinals in Libertadores" .
He also made a point of showing an excerpt from an interview with Jorge Sampaoli, in which the coach agrees with this idea: "I am confident that Flamengo can reach the final at Maracanã." That's because the first leg between both teams was actually in Rio de Janeiro.
A series of messages can be seen on social media from club fans with the tag: "#OlimpiaMiOrgulio" ("Olimpia my pride" in Portuguese). Some messages were published even after the defeat against the Brazilian. The narrator asks the athletes to continue fighting hard so that the rival - Flamengo - could be sure that he faced the "usual" Olimpia.
In addition, the video also teases Flamengo players, saying they were tired and discouraged, even after winning a first victory over Olimpia. It goes on to show images of Flamengo players sitting on the Maracanã lawn, implying that they were extremely: "they ended up on the ground, discouraged. You, on the other hand, standing, with confidence from the game you played".
Finally, the conclusion begins with: "They have the advantage, but your will to win is much greater". Then he talks about Flamengo having a much greater economic capacity than the team ("They can have millions"), but believes that "none of them deserves glory like you".
"No Brazilian has more history than this shirt", concludes the video, even though Olimpia has the same number of Copa Libertadores as Flamengo - three - and has never won a world title.

In an interview given after the defeat of Flamengoto Peñarol, 1-0, coach Tite was direct in responding to the boos received by the fans. The statement, marked by a frank tone, exposed the coach's pragmatic vision in relation to demanding fans and the pressure for results. “I respect the fans’ feelings. Of course I feel that (the boos), I'm human”, said Tite, recognizing the fans' frustration in the face of the setback.
Tite's speech reveals that he understands the role of fans as a fundamental part in the context of a club, especially in a team of great expression like Flamengo. By mentioning that the boos affect him as a human being, the coach demonstrates empathy, but does not fail to highlight that the only way to reverse this situation is with achievements on the field. “It can only be reversed in one way”, pointed out the coach.
THE MISTAKE THAT COSTED EXTREMELY DEARLYThe response reflects the experience of Titein dealing with pressure who follows the command of great teams in Brazilian football. With successful spells at clubs such as Corinthians, Grêmio and the Brazilian national team itself, the coach has a track record that puts him in a position to understand, perhaps like few others, the relationship between performance on the field and fans' expectations. For him, this connection is clear: “Do you know how to win fans? Do you know how I won over the fans of the other clubs I played for? Win an important title”, he declared.
The phrase highlights the centrality of titles in football, especially in mass clubs like Flamengo. In Brazil, the culture of results is intense, and Tite recognizes that fans have a limited tolerance for negative results. Winning titles, for him, is the key to gaining the support of the fans, and anything other than that results in discontent: “If not, bye.”
This last part of Tite's speech summarizes the characteristic impatience of demanding fans like Flamengo. The coach makes it clear that, without obtaining relevant trophies, the relationship with the fans deteriorates quickly. The pressure is constant and is part of the daily life of those who take on the leadership of top teams. Tite seems, however, to be aware of this scenario and how it needs to be faced.
The club has its greatest moment of inconstancy

Tite's statement came after a delicate moment for Flamengo. The defeat to Peñarol, at home, in a group stage match of the Copa Libertadores, raised alarm bells for fans and the coaching staff. Flamengo had high expectations for the season, especially after major reinforcements and the arrival of Tite, a coach with wide recognition on the national and international scene.
The pressure on Flamengo is nothing new. The club, which has one of the biggest fans in the world, is known for its high expectations for titles. The expensive squad, made up of renowned players, also increases this demand. Each stumble is widely covered by the media and amplifies the dissatisfaction of part of the fans, who demand immediate results.
CAN IT GO BAD AT THE MOMENT?The Copa Libertadores, in particular, has a important meaning for Flamengo and its fans. The continental tournament is seen as one of the club's main objectives each season. Any result other than victory can generate dissatisfaction and pressure on the technical committee, as occurred after the setback against Peñarol.
In this context, Tite's speech not only recognizes the fans' dissatisfaction, but also is realistic in relation to what is expected from a club like Flamengo. The demand for titles is part of the package when taking over a club of this size, and the coach seems to be aware of this when he points out that he will only be able to win the support of the fans with significant victories.
The coach has his bias organized on the club’s current situation
