Flamengo stuns journalist and Grêmio fan: “Could have been three” | OneFootball

Flamengo beat Grêmio 1-0 on Sunday (10), in the 15th round of the Brasileirão

Rival fans are stunned by Flamengo’s performance on Sunday (10) against Grêmio. As a result, Grêmio-supporting journalist Farid Germano admitted that the 1-0 scoreline was flattering for the home side at Arena do Grêmio, in the 15th round of the Brasileirão.

— Boos at the Arena. Flamengo are redrawing the pitch. It was a game in which Flamengo were a machine, but Grêmio had to impose themselves. Grêmio had to play. Grêmio couldn’t find any alternatives. It was 1-0, but it could have been three; there were two shots off the post. Things like that leave me stunned,” Farid said, before adding:

— I was convinced that today Grêmio were going to win, that Grêmio were going to go at them, that Grêmio were going to impose themselves, but Grêmio didn’t impose themselves. Grêmio couldn’t play. Grêmio were overwhelmed by Flamengo. A team that is on another level, a team that, to me, is the best team in Brazilian football, even more so than Palmeiras. But Grêmio had to play,” he lamented.

Why didn’t Flamengo score more goals?

The journalist added that he was “dizzy” and “upset.” The commentator then pointed to mistakes in coach Luís Castro’s lineup and said that goalkeeper Weverton and the woodwork saved the team from Rio Grande do Sul.
