Rossi on Jardim’s Flamengo start, compares him to Filipe Luís | OneFootball

Leonardo Jardim debuted with a title as Flamengo's coach

Leonardo Jardim started off on the right foot as Flamengo's coach. After all, this Sunday (08), the Rubro-Negro became the champion of the Carioca Championship against Fluminense. During the State Championship award ceremony, Agustín Rossi compared the Portuguese's work with coach Filipe Luís.

— In fact, at the beginning, Leonardo Jardim and the coaching staff's idea has many similarities with several things we were already doing. He even told us that his idea hasn't changed. We've already done this in other games. Of course, we've only had three or four days of work -, he said, before concluding:

— We had today's training, we'll have tomorrow's training, and on Wednesday, there's already another game. So we're adapting to his idea, trying to do our best on the field, because what ultimately defines everything are the results. We hope the results are good to achieve many things by the end of the year. There's still a long way to go, the year is just starting, and the group is prepared for everything -, concluded Rossi.

What are Filipe Luís's numbers at Flamengo?

In 101 matches as Flamengo's coach, Filipe Luís has accumulated 64 victories, 22 draws, and 15 losses, with a 70% success rate. Moreover, the young coach has won seven titles: Copa do Brasil, Supercopa do Brasil, Carioca, Brasileirão, Libertadores, Derby of the Americas, and Challenger Cup.

What is Flamengo's next game?
