“I’m mainly to blame”: Jardim fumes after Flamengo draw with Vasco | OneFootball

Leonardo Jardim led Flamengo in the 2-2 draw this Sunday (03)

The derby was 2-0 in favor of Flamengo, but Vasco managed to equalize this Sunday (03) at the Maracanã. As a result, coach Leonardo Jardim took the blame for letting the three points slip away in the 14th round of the Brasileirão.

— We tried to stop the crosses early on and made things easier for them because we didn’t close down the channel. We played against Estudiantes (ARG), who also relied on that, and today Vasco took advantage of it — the coach said, before adding:

— We knew Vasco’s team was fresher and would go all or nothing at the end, but we had to show maturity and control, and we couldn’t do that. I’m the one responsible — said the manager.

What is the Brasileirão situation?

The result meant Mengo missed the chance to close the gap on Palmeiras, who drew with Santos. Therefore, Fla remain in second place in the Brasileirão with 27 points. The São Paulo side, however, now on 33 points, have played one more match than the Most Beloved.
