0Flamengo and Bolívar will face each other again in the round of 16 of the Libertadores on Thursday night (22), in La Paz. Before the clash, the coach of the Bolivian team Flavio Robatto compared Rubro-Negro's style of play with that of San Antonio Bulo Bulo (BOL), their last opponent in the Bolivian Championship. For him, Mais Querido will not adopt the same idea as the local team.
"If Flamengo comes to do this, I can't imagine Nico de la Cruz throwing himself on the ground 60 times pretending to have a cramp, so I don't believe Flamengo will do that. All the teams that came and did that lost, except this one, probably. There is no successful strategy when you don't want to play football", said coach Flavio Robatto.
Last Monday (19), Bolívar was only left in a goalless draw with San Antonio Bulo Bulo. The team dominated the confrontation, finished 15 times, but was unable to break through the rivals' block.

Striker is not going through a good phase for Mengão

0In July this year, Santos showed interest in signing striker Carlinhos, currently at Flamengo. However, a FIFA regulation interrupted negotiations. According to the entity's rules, a player can be registered for up to three different clubs in the same season, but can only play official matches for two of these teams.
FIFA REGULATIONS PREVENT REGISTRATION
Before his arrival at Mais Querido, Carlinhos played for Nova Iguaçu, participating in competitions such as the Campeonato Carioca and the Copa do Brasil. This means that, according to article 5 of FIFA's Regulation on the Status and Transfer of Players, the striker had already played for two clubs during the season, which would prevent him from officially playing for Santos in 2023.
A The only exception provided for in the regulations would be a transfer to a club from an association with the opposite calendar to the Brazilian one, as happens in Europe, where the seasons run from August to July. As the move to Santos does not fit into this situation, the São Paulo club withdrew its interest.
In addition to the regulatory obstacle, Carlinhos also showed no interest in leaving Flamengo. The striker, who started to receive more opportunities under the command of coach Tite, has been used mainly in the absence of Pedro, who is recovering from an injury. The young player has already entered the field in Libertadores and Brasileirão matches, contributing with two important goals against Atlético-MG and Vitória.
With Pedro's injury, Bruno Henrique has been improvised in the center forward position, occupying the starting position at Flamengo . Gabigol, who also competes for Mengão's attack and has already scored four goals this season, remains one of the team's offensive options.

"I'm enchanted by some players, like John Kennedy, for their personality, but technically I was better than him. Estêvão is another, a great dribbler, and I considered myself a natural dribbler", commented the former player.
PRAISE FOR GABIGOL AND DUDU
Among the most experienced players, the former striker mentioned Dudu, from Palmeiras, and Gabigol, from Mais Querido. Edmundo made a point of praising the strong personality and technical quality of both, although he highlighted that each one has a different playing style.
"Dudu is one of the players I like to watch. He plays Palmeiras' number 7, which makes me identify a little with him. Gabigol, from Mengão, is an athlete with a strong personality, very confident in himself, although he has a different style than me, he did some things on the field. which I also did, perhaps even more intensely", commented Edmundo, with good humor.
