Cartolas and the Flamengo Technical Committee go crazy, sending a team to La Paz. Defeat was imminent
Scientist Tite’s Flamengo, eliminated at the World Cup by Belgium and Croatia, performed poorly in Bolivia. Cartolas and the Technical Committee went crazy sending to La Paz a group of guys who were absolutely improvised in every sense. Don’t just blame the altitude. Bolivar – anyone who has seen the previous matches knows this – has a good team. I had already tried it in the Libertadores. Luckily today the level was lower. Otherwise it would be a defeat. This is completely irresponsible. What goes through the minds of those who manage the club? What joke is this? Who takes over?
But let’s go. The 2-1 defeat against Bolivar, evident since the day before, when science had become a player, has two sides. Let’s start with the negative side: the situation at Libertadores has become chaotic. The good: It’s the beginning of the end for Tite.
Tite and Flamengo
The citizen’s departure, scheduled for June, could also take place before the Copa América, given that he did not wait for the start of the tournament to select the reserves. But the dismissal – or perhaps it will be the coach himself who asks for the cap – will probably only happen during this damned competition, when he will be forced to launch a truly second-class team in the Brazilian Championship, due to the inevitable call-ups of Dorival Júnior . and foreign coaches. Flamengo will play nine games with Serie B in the national competition, and this will cause an absurd drop in the standings, leading Rubro-Negro to fight against the last places.
It is to be imagined that the club’s board of directors will delay the process, to prevent the immediate payment of compensation, but as has happened on previous occasions – 2023 is an example – the general pressure will determine Tite’s farewell and the scientists of his CT. It is absolutely unbearable that a club with a gigantic fan base, European structure and budget, cannot field top-level athletes, who earn millions, with punctual payments, twice a week.
Saving should be a sporadic practice, here or there, basically depending on the obvious fragility of the opponent, or the urgent need of the player who actually has a problem that will worsen if he takes advantage of it.
Are you tired…
What football, in general, is doing is tiring its most avid fans, abusing practices that exhaust the fan’s motivation, patience and loyalty. And which impoverish the game itself, such as the selection of reserves in important matches, the plague of VAR and exorbitant prices, opening up spaces for curious people who use sport for mere entertainment, people who go to the stadium to take selfies and don’t realize the ‘topic – or to intelligent people who only seek enrichment, such as the betting festival, whose aim is to cause distrust and discredit. And when a guy scores a goal, he takes off his shirt and throws it in the air? Have you seen the values in the O Globo report?
The game
Science – As for the match in La Paz, well, Flamengo scored as soon as the ball arrived – Francisco da Costa with a header – and Bolivar must have considered it easy, and in such a way as to then let the opponent equalize, It seems to have frozen the team, which began to make mistakes at the same rate as the locals, who in addition to the nonsense still had the chance, like the locals, to score. And if Bolivar was afraid, Flamengo was chaos. Wesley was terrible, the trio of defenders lost, the midfield out of tune, the attack without time on the ball.
At half-time, the coach changed Vitor Hugo: what is Vitor Hugo? – on Luiz Araújo’s tram, but Rubro-Negro embraced the defense, attracting Bolivar, but it is a fact that while the match was tied, there was also the possibility – who knows – that the Rio team would launch a fatal counterattack. But it didn’t succeed. In the 62nd minute, after wasting two chances, Bruno Sávio, unmarked, finally put the ball in the net: 2 – 1. In the 75th minute, Jesus Sagredo got his hands on the ball. Penalty ignored. Which will also serve as an excuse.
First place in the group went to space. Not yet classified. But Flamengo now has a great chance of losing her due to “sickle cell traits”.
