Flamengo beat Fluminense this Wednesday, in Maracanã, in a match valid for the ninth day of the Brazilian Championship. After the game, coach Domènec Torrent spoke about the evolution of the team in recent matches. Rubro-Negro has four consecutive victories.
– Everyone is better physically. It is normal. We needed to train. This year is very complicated due to the pandemic. We stopped for a long time. Tactically we play each game better. We understand what we want to do against each opponent. We play the same way, but not always in the same formation. Sometimes 4-2-3-1, sometimes 4-3-3, but we’ve been together for 34 or 35 days and we’re all doing much better. I also.

Physical and tactical developments
Now everyone is better physically, it is normal. We needed to train, we are in a difficult year due to the pandemic. Tactically I think that every day we play a little better and we understand what we want to do against each opponent. I think we are all better. I also.
Best moments: Fluminense 1 x 2 Flamengo, for the 9th round of the 2020 Brazilian Championship
Importance of the evolving 4-2-3-1 scheme
Yes now. But we play other games in other ways. At 4-3-3. We have important players who can play like socks, like Arrascaeta, Diego, who was fantastic. Everton can too. Perhaps it is the best formation now (4-2-3-1), but that does not mean that we will repeat in the next game. We study the opponents, we work hard. We concluded that in the last matches it was better to play 4-2-3-1. Maybe it’s another one in the next game.
I am happy about the style. I like few touches, I prefer to give two touches and not carry the ball. When we drive today, we lose a lot of deals.
Cast rotation and plans for the Libertadores
It is important for the rhythm of the team. We know that playing at the level of Quito is very complicated, that’s why many teams have problems. That’s why we are trying to rotate the players. We will also race in the next game. It is important for the confidence of the team. I also have a lot more confidence in everyone. They are training very well.
We will always try to play with the best players of the moment.
He was very tired (and asked to be replaced). Had gastroenteritis a day ago. He wasn’t sure he could play. At halftime he told me he was tired.
Preparation for Liberators
We are better, but not 100%. We can defend better and attack better, with less touches and more precision in passing. Attack by form, because we have the best attackers. The height hurt, when I spoke to the technicians, they all told me the same thing, that it is very difficult. But now I’m focused on the Brazilian’s next game.
