Bahia coach fails to break taboo against Rubro-Negro
|
0Rogério Ceni, currently coach of Bahia, accumulated his 13th consecutive defeat against Flamengo in his career as a coach. This Wednesday (28), Bahia was defeated by Rubro-Negro 1-0, at Casa de Apostas Arena Fonte Nova, in the first game of the quarterfinals of the Copa do Brasil. This result maintains a curious and uncomfortable taboo in Ceni's career as a coach, who never managed to beat Flamengo.
Rogério Ceni has already faced Flamengo in charge of four different clubs: São Paulo, Fortaleza, Cruzeiro and Bahia. Since the beginning of his career as a coach, in 2017, Ceni has failed to overcome the Rio team in any of the 13 matches played. Below, the complete list of clashes:
2017: Flamengo 2 x 0 São Paulo
2019: Flamengo 2 x 0 Fortaleza
2019: Fortaleza 1 x 2 Flamengo
2019: Cruzeiro 1 x 2 Flamengo
2020: Flamengo 2 x 1 Fortaleza
2021: São Paulo 0 x 4 Flamengo
2022: São Paulo 0 x 2 Flamengo
2022: São Paulo 1 x 3 Flamengo
2022: Flamengo 1 x 0 São Paulo
2023: Flamengo 1 x 0 Bahia
2024: Flamengo 2 x 1 Bahia
2024: Bahia 0 x 1 Flamengo
Most meetings between Ceni and Flamengo occurred for the Brazilian Championship, with the exception of two duels in 2022, valid for the Copa do Brasil, in addition to the recent clash in 2024.
Although he was unable to beat Flamengo as an opponent, Rogério Ceni has on his resume some of the greatest achievements of his career precisely in charge of Rubro-Negro. In 2020, he led Flamengo to the Brazilian Championship title, and in 2021, he won the Brazilian Super Cup and the Carioca Championship.

The club has another striker out
|
0Flamengo will face Grêmio in Porto Alegre, but an important absence has already been confirmed: Gabigol, one of the team's main attackers, will not travel with the red-black delegation. The player will remain in Rio de Janeiro, where he will focus on improving his physical form. The decision not to take the striker to the capital of Rio Grande do Sul aims to ensure that he has enough time to dedicate himself to physical preparation at Ninho do Urubu, the club's training center. Although there is no confirmed injury, Flamengo appears to be taking precautions to avoid wear and tear that could compromise the remainder of the season.
This choice may surprise some fans, as Gabigol is one of the team's key players and, generally, an undisputed starter in decisive matches. The absence of Gabriel Barbosa, known as Gabigol, raises questions about how Flamengo should arm the team offensively for the clash. Despite Gabigol's absence, Flamengo has alternatives in attack, with players like Pedro and Bruno Henrique, who can take the lead. The expectation is that the coach will use these options to compensate for the striker's absence.
The decision to spare Gabigol may be related to the club's long-term planning. Flamengo faces a marathon of important games, and the physical recovery of its athletes becomes essential to maintain performance in simultaneous competitions. According to information released by Mauro Cezar, Gabigol is focused on improving his physical side. This could mean that the player has been feeling the wear and tear accumulated throughout the season.
Flamengo has adopted a strategy of preserving some of its main players at certain times, aiming to avoid injuries that could sideline them for long periods of time. periods. This preventive measure is common in clubs that compete in several competitions and have a tight schedule. With this, the idea is that the athlete returns in better condition, ready to perform at a higher level in the next matches.
The club has its main problem being resolved

0Forward Michael, from Flamengo, took an important step towards his return to the field this Friday (20). The player, who was away from activities due to an injury, participated in activities on the field, signaling an accelerated evolution in his recovery process. Although the initial deadline for his return was two months, the athlete's performance exceeded medical and technical expectations, opening up the possibility of an earlier-than-expected return.
Michael was injured a few weeks ago, in a situation that worried the medical department and Flamengo's technical committee. The injury, which would initially require more extensive treatment, led to the expectation of a prolonged absence. The deadline initially given by the doctors was two months, a period considered reasonable for the player to fully recover and be able to return to his normal activities at the club without the risk of a relapse.
A RETURN BEFORE TIME < /b>However, over the last few weeks, the player has shown impressive progress, which has generated optimism among Flamengo members. This Friday, Michael held his first training session on the field since his injury, an important milestone in the rehabilitation process. This activity is an indication that the player may be able to return to the starting lineup soon, if there are no new setbacks in his treatment.
The medical department of Flamengo remains cautious, but does not hide its optimism with the attacker's progress. The better-than-expected recovery, both in terms of time and performance, is seen as a positive sign for the club, which is counting on the player at a crucial moment of the season. With several important commitments in sight, Michael's presence would be a valuable reinforcement for the red and black team, which seeks to remain competitive both in the Brazilian Championship and in international competitions.
Every day, Gabigol's destiny is far from the vulture's nest

0The future of Gabigol is uncertain, but the player should not stay at Flamengo. The statements made by the club's managers, which have even irritated the player, indicate that the end of the cycle is real and a new renewal should not be offered. Therefore, Gabriel must now evaluate possible destinations, after much speculation from Corinthians and Palmeiras. But Everton Ribeiro's Bahia is another possibility.
Flamengo's own idol, Everton Ribeiro, invited his former teammate to join him in Salvador. The midfielder gave an interview to TNT Sports and responded about Gabigol, stating that Bahia would be an incredible destination and that he is counting on his arrival. Furthermore, he passed the responsibility on to the Bahian team's manager, showing himself excited about the possibility.
“It's a great destination. We count on him here. He just says he wants us to make a call. I talk to Cadu (Santoro) and he gives his way. Gabi is a great striker, he has a beautiful story at Flamengo. If he leaves, may he go to a big club like Bahia. If you get here, it will help a lot. I'm sure he has many goals ahead of him in his career”, says Everton Ribeiro.
Ex-Flamengo, Everton Ribeiro did not reach an agreement with Flamengo to remain at the club, seeing his contract end at the end from last season. The same happens with Gabigol, who has a contract until December and did not reach a consensus with the Mengão board about staying.
Gabigol, therefore, fulfills his contract, but the news was also that Bahia could wait until December to negotiate directly with the player, just as Palmeiras and Corinthians could also do.
