Player shares squad’s response to Jardim’s pre-Flamengo training | OneFootball

What did Emerson Royal say about the squad having an ‘activation’ before going onto the field?

Coach Leonardo Jardim has adopted a methodology of carrying out an activity with the Flamengo squad hours before matches. After Mengão’s 2-0 victory over Cruzeiro, right-back Emerson Royal commented that he has already gone through this process in Europe and, moreover, believes that this exercise is beneficial for the squad.

— I think it’s important, I spent a long time in Europe and that’s how we worked. When the game was in the afternoon, we would go to the field in the morning to do an activation. I have no problem with it, and I believe no one else had a problem either. I think it’s good so we don’t spend the whole day in bed, because you could even end up a bit more tired for the match -, said Emerson Royal in an interview in the mixed zone this Wednesday (11).

WHAT HAS LEONARDO JARDIM ALREADY CHANGED AT THE START OF HIS WORK AT FLAMENGO?

In addition to the training sessions, Leonardo Jardim has also implemented other changes in Flamengo’s daily routine. That’s because, with the Portuguese coach in charge, the Rubro-Negro has returned to using the pre-match concentration regime before games in Rio de Janeiro.

And whether it’s a coincidence or not, the strategy has worked out. So far, Flamengo has played two matches at Maracanã, where they won the Carioca championship over Fluminense, and beat Cruzeiro in a Brasileirão match. Now, even though the next match will also be in Rio, Mengão will be the away team.

WHAT IS FLAMENGO’S NEXT GAME IN THE BRASILEIRÃO?

Flamengo’s next game will be against Botafogo this Saturday (14th), for the sixth round of the Brasileirão. The ball rolls for the classic at 8:30 p.m. (Brasília time), at Estádio Nilton Santos. As usual, Coluna do Fla TV will show the match details on YouTube, as well as on their website and social media. Finally, Amazon Prime (streaming) will broadcast the match.
