Maracanã was the stage for Flamengo's 2-1 victory over São Paulo this Wednesday, which allowed the team to take the lead in the Brazilian Championship. This position has not been occupied since the final round of the 2020 edition, when they won the title for the eighth time. Tite assessed the red and black triumph as follows:
- They repeated the final of the Copa do Brasil, a traditional duel. We also lost to São Paulo there in the last game of the Brazilian Championship (2023). The duel has the greatness of its teams, two teams that perform well. But the feeling is that we could have transformed our football into the third goal. (It didn't happen) a lot also due to the good performance of the opposing goalkeeper.
- And then football is a little game of chess, because when Allan has a cramp, he can't do the recovery. He asks to leave, but the rules of the game do not allow this stoppage. And it was precisely in Alisson's sector that he made the play (for the São Paulo goal). It's difficult to regret. But, given the performance, the result should have been more elastic.
This Wednesday (17), Rubro-Negro beat São Paulo 2-1, at Maracanã, and took over the top of the table due to the number of goals scored. However, in Bruno Henrique's view, the balance could have been better against the Morumbi team. Furthermore, the red-and-black idol took the opportunity to declare himself to the fans, after receiving a lot of support from the Nation during the 90 minutes.
"I'll say it a thousand times: the affection I have for this crowd, the The affection they have for me is always gratitude. (Happy) to be at the biggest club. I'm very happy to be able to do my best on the field, playing as a starter or coming on during the matches. , it was a difficult game, against a team that will fight for the championship and we managed to endure it very well", said Bruno Henrique.
The teams play the first game of the quarterfinals at 7 p.m.
