Thiago Carpini after Flamengo's victory over Juventude: "The disparity is huge"
"Today we faced a Flamengo team that needs no comment. The disparity is huge, a team accustomed to shooting a lot and being imposing. We managed to limit their shots a bit, which shows that some of the combinations worked well ," said Carpini.
The coach also explained why he chose Nenê and Alan Ruschel as starters. According to him, the idea was to prioritize possession and exploit set pieces , but the plan didn't pan out, largely due to Flamengo 's own style of play.
"It was more of a coincidence than a strategy, playing at home. Nenê gives us support and rhythm, as well as the set pieces. Alan played well, as did Hermes . We have a group, and we'll choose the best options based on our daily routine," added the Juventude coach.
With the victory, Flamengo reached 50 points and maintained its four-point lead over Palmeiras at the top . Juventude remains in 18th place with 21 points, within the relegation zone. In the next round, Flamengo faces Vasco, while Juventude visits Mirassol in São Paulo.

Marcos Leonardo, a 22-year-old striker , has decided to postpone any negotiations to return to Brazilian football. Despite interest from São Paulo, the player opted to remain with Al-Hilal until at least January 2026, keeping future opportunities in the domestic market open.
At Al-Hilal, the number 9 lost his place after the arrival of Darwin Núñez , signed from Liverpool. Under coach Inzaghi's guidance, Marcos Leonardo was not registered for the local league, but he will continue to play in the Asian Champions League, the main showcase for football in the Middle East, which keeps his name in the spotlight for interested parties.
São Paulo, which expressed interest in signing him, struggled to compete with foreign offers, which is Al-Hilal's priority in the event of a sale. In this context, Flamengo is closely monitoring Marcos Leonardo, considering him as an option to strengthen its attack in 2026.
Internally, Marcos Leonardo has never hidden his desire to return to Brazil. Despite his stated preference for São Paulo, sources close to the striker indicate that Flamengo 's sports project and investment power could be decisive in a future negotiation.
At Gávea, Marcos Leonardo's name is being considered as part of a potential offensive overhaul. The club is planning offensive changes in 2026 and sees the forward as a young player with the potential for a significant technical return.
