With attention focused on the second game of the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil against Palmeiras, which will take place next Wednesday (7), the Flamengo entered the field against São Paulo with a very modified team. Coach Tite's strategy, preserving several starters for physical reasons, resulted in a 1-0 defeat at Morumbi, with a goal from Calleri.
The defeat did not go unnoticed by critics, especially from presenter Thiago Asmar, popularly known as Pilhado. On the Canelada program, from Grupo Jovem Pan, Pilhado didn't mince words when criticizing coach Tite and some players from Flamengo.
Matheus Gonçalves was named as a starter in the defeat to São Paulo. He was replaced by Lorran 30 minutes into the second half. Matheus' performance was considered below expectations by Pilhado, who was scathing in his criticism.
“Ah, boy. Never play anything! You don't have to protect the boy. He is not very intelligent on the field. It finishes at the wrong time, it finishes poorly, it adds up to almost nothing tactically”, said Pilhado.
In addition to the criticism, Pilhado suggested that Flamengo consider other options for Matheus Gonçalves. “Is he a boy? He returns to base until he improves, or lends out. Matheus Gonçalves will never perform again in Flamengo”, concluded the presenter, suggesting that the player be returned to the base or loaned to another club.

Flamengo can count on an important surprise in the starting line-up for the clash against Peñarol (URU), this Thursday (26), for the return of the quarter-finals of the Libertadores. In training held this Sunday (22), Tite's technical committee tested the team with Gabigol among the starters, according to the portal 'Coluna do Fla'.

Rossi;
Varela, Fabrício Bruno, Léo Pereira and Alex Sandro;
Léo Ortiz, Gerson and Arrascaeta;
Plata , Bruno Henrique and Gabigol.
Gabigol was not included in the game against Grêmio, which also takes place this Sunday (22) in the Brasileirão, in Porto Alegre. For this match, Tite traveled without the 11 starting players who played against Peñarol last Thursday (19), in addition to Léo Ortiz. Thus, training at Ninho do Urubu was led by assistant Matheus Bachi, and a possible formation for the decisive Libertadores duel was tested.
Flamengo was defeated 1-0 by Peñarol, at Maracanã, in first game of the Libertadores quarter-finals. Now, Rubro-Negro needs to win by two goals in Uruguay to guarantee a place in the semi-finals.
Return matchThe return match between Flamengo and Peñarol will be held on September 26th (Thursday), at 7pm, the same time as the first leg.

With a contract until the end of the season, coach Tite is not expected to remain at Flamengo for 2025. The club will have an election on December 9th, and the main teams have already indicated internally their preference for other names for Rubro's technical command -Black. In this scenario, Grêmio appears as a possible new home for Adenor, according to information from Portal do Gremista.
According to journalist Natalia Fontoura, Tite is seen behind the scenes at Grêmio as a good option, if Renato Gaucho does not continue at the club. Portaluppi has received criticism from fans, and his contract also ends in December. Tite already has an important history at Grêmio, where he was between 2001 and 2003, a period in which he won the Campeonato Gaúcho and the Copa do Brasil in 2001.
Still in charge of Flamengo, Tite will face Grêmio this Sunday (22), sparing the starting team due to the focus on the decisive clash against Peñarol in the Libertadores. In the first leg of the quarter-finals, Rubro-Negro was defeated 1-0, making the second leg crucial for Flamengo's aspirations in the continental competition.
Since taking over Flamengo in September 2023, Tite has already faced Grêmio on two occasions. In last year's Brasileirão, Rubro-Negro was defeated 3-2 at the Arena. However, in the first round this year, Flamengo came back and won 2-1, with two goals from Luiz Araújo.
