One of the leaders of the Flamengo squad, midfielder Jorginho gave an interview after the team’s loss to Red Bull Bragantino. In one of his remarks, the Italian-Brazilian blasted the team’s attitude in the match and also called out the entire rubro-negro squad.
— It’s about learning; this can’t happen. Everyone has to look at themselves, all of us, and change this. We don’t deserve it, for everything we work for, the fans don’t deserve it, and Flamengo don’t deserve it —, said Jorginho in an interview after Thursday’s game (02).
The game against Bragantino was Flamengo’s first after the end of the FIFA international break. Because of that, there was anticipation to see how the team coached by Leonardo Jardim would return to the pitch.
However, that return did not go as expected. In Bragança Paulista, Flamengo failed to be a creative team and, on top of that, lost 3-0 to Bragantino.
Yes! Besides Jorginho, Danilo also spoke bluntly and slammed Flamengo’s performance against Bragantino. In an interview right after the match, the rubro-negro No. 13 said he left the pitch feeling ashamed.
— Shame. What we truly did on the field was something that cannot happen wearing the Flamengo shirt. Not only with the Flamengo shirt, but also considering each person’s individual history. We have to do some soul-searching right now; there have already been a few of these this season —, began Danilo.
— As I’ve said a few times, each person has to take responsibility inside the locker room and outside it as well. Now is not the time to talk too much; we need to stay quiet, work, and improve, because in Flamengo’s history, today is a chapter I am not proud at all to be part of —, added the center back.
Trying to move on from the loss to Bragantino, Flamengo are already preparing for their next commitment of the season. On Sunday (05), Mengo face Santos in the 10th round of the Brasileirão.
The ball starts rolling at 5:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at the Maracanã. As usual, Coluna do Fla TV will bring all the details of the match with the most rubro-negro on-site coverage on YouTube, as well as on the website and social media.
