Flamengo x Athletico – PR face each other this Wednesday (12) in a game valid for the return of the quarterfinals of the Copa do Brasil at 21:30. Rubro Negro from Rio de Janeiro won the first game that took place at Maracanã, after leaving behind on the scoreboard, the team managed to turn around. The authors of the goals were Pedro and Bruno Henrique.

The team will be able to count on a great reinforcement for the game soon, Gabigol is recovered from the sprain that he had in the right ankle and he was included for the match. The star suffers the problem on July 1, against Fortaleza, for the Brazilian Championship.

In an isolated move, the attacker 'stepped falsely' and twisted his ankle on the Maracanã lawn. The number 10 shirt was substituted at half-time and was missing from Flamengo in the game against Athletico – PR last Wednesday (5) and in the game against Palmeiras last Saturday (8). Returning from injury, it is likely that Gabigol will start the game on the bench since the Liga Arena's pitch is synthetic and 'harder' than usual.

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 DEARLY 

The 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.

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.

Flamengo is preparing for a game with Athletico-PR at the Ligga Arena, on Sunday (16), in the ninth round of the Brasileirão. Even though worn out and missing, Fla will have in its favor its very favorable recent record in a reunion with “customer” Cuca to maintain leadership in the table.

Cuca had to face Flamengo in Santos, São Paulo and Atlético-MG, all for Brasileirão. He only managed to avoid defeat with the São Paulo tricolor, who drew the only match under the coach's command. The only team that commanded and did not face Rubro-Negro was Corinthians, where they only played two games. 

See the history since 2018:

Flamengo 1 x 0 Atlético-MG- Brasileirão 2022

Flamengo 1 x 0 Atlético-MG- Brasileirão 2021

Atlético-MG 2 x 1 Flamengo- Brasileirão 2021


Flamengo 4 x 1 Santos- Brasileirão 2020


Santos 0 x 1 Flamengo- Brasileirão 2020

São Paulo 1 x 1 Flamengo- Brasileirão 2019

Flamengo 1 x 0 Santos- Brasileirão 2018


It is worth highlighting that the general record between teams from Cuca and Flamengo is also the domain of Rubro -Black. In 34 games since 2003, Mais Querido defeated the coach on 14 occasions, drew 12 and lost eight. Success is 52.9%.

Achieving an away victory over Athletico-PR next Sunday will expand this already very favorable record and will certainly be important for the c
