Flamengo only drew 1-1 with São Paulo this Sunday afternoon at Morumbi and ended up as runner-up in the Copa do Brasil on aggregate (they had lost 1-0 in the first game at Maracanã). Jorge Sampaoli left the field without participating in the medal ceremony and lamented the loss of the title at the press conference:
"I think the game was in Flamengo's favor. In the four halves, three went to Flamengo. In this World Cup, Flamengo was better than all its rivals. But that's football. São Paulo scored a goal at the end of the first half, where they hadn't tried anything. In the second half the team went looking, a game that was very punished by the referee, very perforated. For me, the team was better than São Paulo and couldn't win", said the coach.
It's worth remembering that Jorge Sampaoli will not be in charge of coaching for 2024. However, it is not known about the coach's continuity after the defeat in the Copa do Brasil. In this sense, the next few hours will be crucial to know if the coach stays until the end of the Brasileirão or if he falls now.
As Flamengo coach, Sampaoli now needs to think about the Brazilian championship. This is because next Saturday, he will face Bahia, at Maracanã, at 4pm. The red-black team is in seventh place in the table, with 40 points, 11 less than the leader, Botafogo.
