“You will be held accountable for the decision”

Flamengo stumbles once again in the Libertadores

O Flamengo suffered its first defeat of the season. Playing in front of a packed stadium, the Dearest was surprised by Bolívar 2-1. The Bolivian team is the isolated leader of the group at the moment

Flamengo fans didn’t like the performance against Bolívar at all and are generally criticizing it, especially coach Tite, who has already been heavily criticized for sparing starters in important games such as the Brasileirão and Libertadores.

If against Palmeiras Tite left Pedro and De La Cruz on the bench, in Bolivia, against Bolívar, the commander fielded a very reserve team and was therefore surprised. The Brazilian will have more games to prove why he deserves to lead Mais Querido, but the fact is that the situation is getting more complicated behind the scenes at Gávea. Many people don’t like the coach’s attitudes.

In these first three Libertadores games against Millionarios, Palesrino and Bolívar, Fla only scored 4 points and is now 5 behind the leader, the Bolivian team. Because of this, the first objectives of Marcos Braz, which was the first general campaign, and his group are almost null so far.

Tite has been criticized at Flamengo

It is too early to fire Tite from Flamengo, given that the commander only suffered his first defeat with the team at the end of April. However, for journalist PVC, the former veteran has to be sent away if Fla does not reach the round of 16.

“I agree with him resigning if he doesn’t qualify’: “Tite arrived because Flamengo didn’t win anything last year. Tite arrived to clean up the mess of Sampaoli and the board, who paid millions in contract termination fines. He had an attempt to win the Brasileirão and the stated objective was to qualify for the Libertadores, because the Brasileirão seemed lost when Sampaoli left, and he qualified for the Libertadores, so the first objective was fulfilled. The second objective, said by Tite, imposed by the board, was to win the state championship: he won, second objective achieved. Okay, you can resign, I agree that you will resign if you don’t qualify for the second phase of the Libertadores”said the journalist who completed it.

PVC is in favor of Tite’s resignation in case of elimination from the Libertadores

“Tite has the right to decide and then he will be charged’: “Last year, where in the group did Flamengo qualify for the round of 16? Second, behind Racing. Was Tite the coach last year? Was not. Was it Galileo Galilei? It wasn’t either. Of course, Flamengo’s objective now is to win the three return games, finish with 13 points and hope that Bolívar loses six points, to have the same 13 points and Flamengo to rank first on balance. This objective is still possible, but of course you can charge Tite. He selected only three starters yesterday and lost to Bolívar. Grêmio chose the reserve team and lost to Strongest, Flamengo in 1983 chose the starting nine and lost to Bolívar. So, like everything in life, you have the right to decide and then you will be held responsible for the decision.”, concluded PVC on the board.

Vice-leader of their group, Flamengo returns to the field, once again away from home to face Palestino, in Chile in the midweek of May 7th, 8th and 9th.
