Is Flamengo’s season already over?

Despite the elimination, the Meninas da Gávea are still alive in the Copa do Brasil quarterfinals. The first match against Fluminense will take place on October 15 at Estádio Luso Brasileiro, where Mengão will be the home team.

What is the author’s comment on the result?

“The team was extremely passive. It looked like Flamengo’s players didn’t know they were behind on aggregate. It’s very bad for the fans to see this kind of attitude,” said João Vítor Reis of Coluna do Fla, who added: “No one seemed outraged by the situation. They all accepted the result calmly. There are some people there who shouldn’t be wearing the Sacred Mantle, because they don’t deserve it. They lost both matches, but they don’t seem to care,” he said.
