Arrascaeta sent a subtle message to those who undervalue Flamengo's achievements


Despite Flamengo winning the Brasileirão and the Libertadores, some still try to find a ‘but’ in Filipe Luís's team's exceptional season. Taking advantage of the moment in the spotlight, Arrascaeta left a subtle message for those who question or undervalue the squad's achievements.

The number 10 of Flamengo, who is having his best season in terms of numbers since joining the club, used social media to share an image of himself holding the Libertadores trophy, along with the phrase: “Remember: the criticism of the frustrated only strengthens the character of the winner.”

WHO TRIED TO MINIMIZE FLAMENGO'S ACHIEVEMENT?

One of the people who tried to downplay the red-black's achievement was Palmeiras' coach, Abel Ferreira. Shortly before Flamengo secured the Brasileirão title, the Portuguese coach commented on the Libertadores final and stated that the decision would have an “asterisk”, referring to a foul committed by Bruno Fuchs during the match.

WHAT ARE FLAMENGO'S NEXT CHALLENGES?

While some try to downplay what Flamengo achieved this season, the club still has major challenges ahead. It is worth noting that Mengão can still win another title in 2025: the Intercontinental. With their fourth Libertadores victory, Filipe Luís's team secured a spot in the tournament and will debut next Wednesday (10) against Cruz Azul (MEX).

If they win against the Mexican team, Flamengo will advance to the next stage and face Pyramids (EGY). Subsequently, if they maintain good performance in the first two stages, Mengão will reach the final to face PSG (FRA), last season's Champions League winner, reinforcing the club's historic season.
