Flamengo drew 1-1 with Vasco this Sunday (21), in a match valid for the 24th round of the Brasileirão. After Carrascal scored, the team from São Januário equalized still in the first half with Rayan, from a corner kick.
Part of the rubro-negro fanbase was even upset with goalkeeper Rossi for the play. That's because the Argentine tried to come off his line to clear the ball, but gave up halfway and left the goal open. Thus, coach Filipe Luís vented about the ‘mistake’ by the number 1.
— Like all other phases of the game, it’s about training, working, correcting mistakes, and improving. We will study together with the staff what happened, what has been happening. Our team is very solid on set pieces — he said, before concluding:
— You mentioned that goal by Ceará, but we have conceded few goals from set pieces and have scored many. We have to keep insisting on correcting mistakes so we can always evolve with each game that passes — Filipe Luís concluded.
Despite the draw, Flamengo remains at the top of the Brazilian Championship, with 51 points. On the other hand, Palmeiras and Cruzeiro took advantage of Mengão’s ‘slip’ and closed the gap in the standings. The team from Minas Gerais has 50 points, while the club from São Paulo has 49.
With Rossi available, Flamengo returns to the field this Thursday (25) to face Estudiantes (ARG). The match will take place at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time), at the Estádio Jorge Luis Hirschi, for the second leg of the quarterfinals of the Libertadores.
Thus, as tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will bring the best coverage on the internet, through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, ESPN (cable channel) and Disney+ (streaming) will broadcast the match between Flamengo and Estudiantes.
