Fluminense drew 3-3 with Athletico last Sunday and remains firmly in the race for a top-four spot in the Brazilian Championship. Since returning from the World Cup break, the Tricolor has gone through a difficult spell, with poor performances in the first matches and then elimination from the Copa do Brasil by its rival, Vasco.
During this period of crisis and Luis Zubeldía’s departure, the Time de Guerreiros has suffered just one defeat since Brazilian football returned from the World Cup break, precisely the result that knocked the team out of the Copa do Brasil. So far, the record is 8 draws, 2 wins, and 1 defeat.
Fluminense is currently fourth in the Brasileirão with 42 points, three fewer than the third-placed team and two more than the fifth, and has also secured a place in the Copa Libertadores quarterfinals, where it will face Platense.
