Flamengo won, but the debate continued in the stands and on social media. On Saturday night (10), Rubro-Negro beat Bahia 1-0 at Maracanã, in the 8th round of the Brazilian Championship. The victory guarantees the team the provisional leadership of the competition, but did not prevent questions from being raised about coach Filipe Luís.
Even with the three points won, the former full-back was once again the target of criticism from the fans. The reason? The delay in substitutions and the slow reading of the game considered by many red-black fans, especially in a second half when the team's technical performance declined and how the reaction would be in the game.
During the broadcast and on social media, fans were quick to comment. "Every time Filipe Luís delays changing the team, I lose two years of my life," wrote one fan. Another comment reflected the sentiment: "Let's see how long it will take him to make the necessary changes."
The irritation became even more evident as Bahia grew in the game. Rogério Ceni's team moved their lines forward and increased the pressure in the attacking field. Flamengo , in turn, remained unchanged until the final stretch of the match . "It's high time our coach made some changes, the team's performance has dropped," wrote one internet user. "It's time for Filipe Luís to change the team. Bahia will move their lines up and complicate things," added another fan during the second half.
The only goal of the game came from Arrascaeta , in an individual move that decided the match. Even with the advantage on the scoreboard, the fans expected a faster response from the bench, since the team was showing signs of fatigue and a certain predictability. The analysis also included the opponent's bench. Rogério Ceni made changes that gave Bahia a new dynamic. Meanwhile, Filipe Luís only made changes after 30 minutes of the final stage. The lack of harmony between the rhythm of the match and the reaction of the bench bothered part of the public.
Mengão's creation was unable to achieve the expected sequence in Colorado and may be leaving after just over 7 months at the club.

As Flamengo and Internacional prepare for their Copa Libertadores Round of 16 clash, a market movement is connecting the two clubs. Colorado has agreed to loan left-back Ramon to Vitória , with a contract valid until the end of the Brazilian Championship .
A Flamengo youth product, the player will be loaned with a purchase option set at €1.5 million (approximately R$9.6 million) for 50% of the economic rights. This information comes from journalist Venê Casagrande. The official announcement is subject to bureaucratic adjustments.
Signed by Inter in January of this year from Olympiacos-GRE, Ramon has a contract until the end of 2027. However, he was unable to establish himself at Beira-Rio: he only played 12 games, the last one being on June 12, in the defeat to Atlético-MG .
Since then, he's lost his place under coach Roger Machado, who even improvised with defender Victor Gabriel at left back . The move to Vitória represents a chance to regain rhythm and confidence. The Bahia club, in turn, needed reinforcement at that position after the injury of full-back Jamerson.
Flamengo and Internacional will face each other for a spot in the quarterfinals of the Copa Libertadores . The first leg takes place on August 13th at the Maracanã, while the return leg is scheduled for August 20th at the Beira-Rio stadium in Porto Alegre.
Ramon was part of a successful generation in Flamengo's youth academy . He won the Copinha in 2018, alongside Hugo Souza, Hugo Moura, Pepê, Lucas Silva, and Yuri César. He also won the U-17 Copa do Brasil, the Brasileirão, and the U-20 Super Cup.
For the professional team, he played 39 matches and participated in the 2020 Brazilian title campaign , in addition to winning the three-time Rio de Janeiro championship (2019, 2020 and 2021). Before going to Europe, he was loaned to Red Bull Bragantino.
