What did Flamengo goalkeeper Andrew say about Rossi?

Andrew was the starting goalkeeper in Flamengo’s 3-0 win over Cusco (PER) at the Maracanã. After the match, the player commented on Rossi’s situation and made it clear that, just like the Argentine, the entire squad works every day to try to reduce mistakes in matches.

  1. As for the questions regarding Rossi, there’s not much to say. We work every day, and nobody likes it when mistakes happen. The only thing for sure is that we’ve been working very hard. Rossi gave some warnings at certain moments about positioning — said Andrew in the mixed zone this Wednesday (26).

Rossi has been Flamengo’s starting goalkeeper in recent seasons, but because of a series of mistakes, fans started to get on the No. 1’s back. Amid this situation, the Argentine ended up being an option on the bench for the clash against Cusco.

Coincidence or not, Leonardo Jardim made it clear that the ‘veto’ on Rossi was not related to the mistakes, but rather to a plan created as soon as Flamengo secured qualification for the next stage of the Libertadores. As a result, the Portuguese coach stated that the decision for Andrew to start had been made a few weeks ago.
