Flamengo numbers show a lack of efficiency in shots on goal

Flamengo went through two bitter rounds in the Brasileirão. As a result, the matches against São Paulo and Internacional ended in draws despite many shots by the Rubro-Negro side. However, the numbers show low efficiency in Mengo’s attempts on goal.

So, Fla scored only one goal in each match. The situation caused the Most Beloved to lose its status as the best attack in the Brazilian Championship. That is because Palmeiras reached 38 goals, while Rubro-Negro remained on 37.

Who is to blame for the two draws?

Part of the media and fans unhappy with Rubro-Negro’s performances began blaming Leonardo Jardim. However, the coach has just completed 25 matches in charge of the Most Beloved, and he has posted good numbers:

Does Leonardo Jardim agree with the criticism?

— We had ten players away (during the mid-season break). We showed a certain level of performance up until the match against Coritiba. After that, we had one group training for more than 30 days and another group that was away — highlighted Leonardo Jardim, who added:

— Those players were with other coaches, other ideas, and other behaviors, and they only arrived now. After those players returned, we still haven’t been able to adjust the team, because we also haven’t had time to train — he said after the match against Internacional.

What is Flamengo’s next match?

With Leonardo Jardim in charge, Flamengo faces Vitória on Sunday (August 9), in the 22nd round of the Brasileirão. Thus, the ball starts rolling at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at the Maracanã, in Rio de Janeiro.
