Coach Domènec Torrent avoided regretting Flamengo’s 1-1 draw against Bragantino, but he also highlighted the sequence of games that challenged Rubro-negro in recent days.
The Asturian recalled that the team had played three games in the last six days and revealed that there was an imminent risk of injury to important players in the squad. Against São Paulo, Dome moved the team a lot and justified his choices.
“We speak with all the individually. THE Gerson was dead, Phedron he was at risk of injury. Isla, who played in the playoffs, He said what he could play about 70 minutes and he played 90. I spoke with the club doctor and he told me that Pedro could play 45, 50 minutes, no more. I did not want nobody I know it hurts, “said the coach, who added:
“Gerson had trouble training today, he was very tired. When he’s the player who says he’s very tired, he has to make sure he doesn’t get hurt.”
Domènec was emphatic in praising the behavior of his team during the delicate period. After the outbreak of the covid-19, Fla still lived with losses, calls and had to turn to many young people in the house. Even so, the team equaled the Atlético-MG leader in points and qualified for the second round of the Libertadores.
“I am very proud of the team. You know what happened in the last month, we played with seven infected in Ecuador. The team is wonderful, the effort the team put in this month is wonderful. If you remember what happened, it was crazy. They all played very well. The effort of this squad was wonderful ”, he added.
To complicate things a bit more, Fla may have another headache. Midfielder Everton Ribeiro left the field with knee discomfort and will be re-evaluated tomorrow (16). Against Bragantino, Dome did not have Diego Alves, Rodrigo Caio, Filipe Luís, Arrascaeta, Gabigol and Pedro Rocha at his disposal.
In the next round, Flamengo will visit Corinthians on Sunday (18) at 4 pm in the Arena. With today’s result, Rubro-negro reached 31 points, tied with Atlético-MG and Internacional, but lagged behind in the tiebreaker criteria.
