Flamengo's Coach Stated that the Fans Were Crucial in Helping Some Players Regain Confidence

Flamengo is approaching the final stretch of the season with many decisive matches ahead. After qualifying for the final of the Libertadores and a 3-0 victory against Sport in the Brasileirão, Filipe Luís sent a message to Flamengo's fans.

In summary, during a press conference, coach Filipe Luís stated that Flamengo's fans were crucial for the victory against Sport. According to the coach, the supporters present at Maracanã supported players who were lacking confidence, such as Samuel Lino and Bruno Henrique.

I have no doubt that the fans were a decisive factor in this victory. Because when players who are not in their best form, like Lino and Bruno Henrique, who are not very confident, take the field... Even Plata, who was coming off a red card, played an excellent game against Racing, but the expulsion affects a player's mindset. They didn't receive the pressure that Flamengo's fans usually give. It's important for the fans to know: they were crucial in the recovery of these players during the game.

How Was Flamengo's Victory?

Flamengo's victory came through the feet of Bruno Henrique and Arrascaeta, historic idols of the beloved team. Additionally, Samuel Lino and De La Cruz had a great performance and helped Fla secure the three points.

However, regarding the goals: 5 minutes into the second half, Bruno Henrique received a perfect pass from Samuel Lino, adjusted his body, and shot with his left foot, leaving the goalkeeper with no chance. With that, the number 27 opened the scoring for Flamengo at Maracanã.

At 15 minutes into the second half, Bruno Henrique scored the second goal: 2-0 for Flamengo. In the play, Gabriel gave a rebound from a header by Danilo and Flamengo's number 27 found the back of the net. Finally, the highlight goal of the match came at the 21st minute.

This is because Arrascaeta took a free kick from the midfield directly into the top corner. Sport's goalkeeper managed to touch the ball, but it wasn't enough to prevent the goal from the most Carioca Uruguayan in Brazilian football.

And Now?

Now, Flamengo remains focused on the Brazilian Championship. On Wednesday (05), Flamengo faces São Paulo at Vila Belmiro (Santos Stadium), starting at 9:30 PM (Brasília time). In São Paulo, the teams will compete in the 32nd round of the Brasileirão.
