Flamengo beat Santos 1-0 this afternoon (30), in Vila Belmiro, in a match valid for the sixth round of the Brazilian Championship. The goal was scored by Gabigol, who stole the ball in the defense field and appeared to finish off the play in the rival area. Apart from the great play of the striker revealed by the Santos point guard, the game was marked by a long delay in the VAR consultation: in the end, it was 17 minutes of extra time.
With the victory, Flamengo reaches eight points and begins to get closer to the G-6 of the tournament, giving coach Domènec Torrent some peace of mind. Santos de Cuca, on the other hand, parked at seven and was overtaken by the locals.
Santos returns to the field on Wednesday, at 9.30 pm, when they receive Vasco, in Vila Belmiro. Flamengo plays a little earlier, also on Wednesday, at 8:30 p.m., against Bahía, in Pituaçu.
The VAR, with much delay, cancels the two goals of Santos
Peixe scored two goals in the first half of the first half, but both were annulled by VAR, which took almost eight minutes to analyze the two plays. In the first, Raniel He went ahead of the ball line at the Pará crossing. In a second, Jobson, in an offside position, attempts a header at Marinho’s foul and misses, but the referee understands that he participates in the play and disallows the goal. In the second stage, a Gustavo Henrique car in Marinho gives a new three-minute stop for VAR analysis, which maintains the field mark: poorly marked impediment.
17 extra minutes
The VAR delay was so long in the review plays that the game added 17 minutes of increase: ten in the first half and seven in the second.
With a goal on birthday, Gabigol is the best in the game
Today’s birthday, Gabigol celebrated his 24th birthday with a goal and a tribute in Vila Belmiro. In addition to the ball in the net, Flamengo’s jersey 9 was the most connected player in the Rubro-negro and was present in the best offensive lines of the team. On the play that resulted in his goal, he had the breath to steal the ball and cross the field to Michael’s pass. The top scorer also endangered goalkeeper João Paulo on at least three occasions, but also made wrong decisions when it came to shooting. He left the field of play with a yellow card motivated by an alleged provocation in the celebration and was replaced by pain in his ankle.
The worst: Felipe Jonatan’s decisive mistake
Santos’s left-back didn’t play a bad game, but it was his mistake that decided the game. El Pez took a short corner kick, the ball was delayed for Felipe Jonatan, who advanced on the field and ended up losing control. Gabigol made the tackle. In the counterattack, Flamengo came out with a numerical advantage and scored his goal, reaching the top scorer in the Santos area to finish it off. Great flamenguista, unfortunate side Santos.
Departure from Santos: Cuca changes and creative work
Coach Cuca had a very busy week working and warned that he would focus on the offensive part, to improve playmaking. And it worked. With Felipe Jonatan and Pará playing inside instead of glued to the sides, Peixe created chances and even opened the scoring twice, but the VAR canceled both.
Flamengo game: Team suffers advances on the wings
The great torment for Flamengo’s defensive system were the plays by the wingers, one of the weapons most used by Santos against Rubro-negro. On the right side, Marinho drove Filipe Luís to despair with dribbling and cuts from the inside. On the other hand, Soteldo also tired the improvised Renê, who just looked at Santos’ 10 shirt. Flamengo’s defense was exposed on many occasions, but the team improved after the break and offered less facilities to the homeowners.
Had ex law
Flamengo entered the field with four players who have played for Santos: Thiago Maia, Gabigol, Bruno Henrique and Gustavo Henrique. In addition to them, the midfielder Diego, who remained on the bench, also passed through Peixe. On the Santos side, Pará had already worked on the other side (but his career is much more marked by the times of Vila Belmiro, let’s be honest). With so many occasions, the “former law” appeared in Vila Belmiro, with the goal of Gabigol.
