With a feeling of frustration with the Spanish Domenéc Torrent, Flamengo looked for the new methodologies of Rogério Ceni to try to “shake up” a squad still lacking the philosophy of the multi-time champion Jorge Jesus. However, a little over a month ago at the club, the new coach accumulates eliminations and oscillations that make Rubro-Negro “close” 2020 without hooking. See some of the reasons below:
Two eliminations
Rogério Ceni’s Flamengo was eliminated from two competitions for which the board bet heavily: the Copa do Brasil, for São Paulo, in the quarterfinals – which prevented the club from winning a grand prize – and the Copa Libertadores for Racing (ARG) , in the round of 16, which ended the dream of a third championship and a new dispute for the world title.
Time oscillates
The red and black team, with the coach, have not yet managed to maintain a regularity and alternate great performances – as in the 4-0 defeat of Santos – with others of little inspiration, such as in the 3-0 defeat against São Paulo and in the draw 0-0 with the Fortaleza yesterday (26).
The attack hangs
After a sequence of two games in which he scored four goals each, Flamengo’s attack stopped against Fortaleza and showed great difficulty in piercing the boom set up by coach Marcelo Chamusca. In addition, goalkeeper Pedro still wasted a penalty by sliding the penalty and committing the offense called “two touches”. It should be remembered that Rubro-Negro had a week off to train.
“If we had scored a goal in the first half, maybe Fortaleza would open up more. They play very close, with two lines, they defend well. Individually we didn’t have a normal production. Our forward men were well scored, but we couldn’t score in the opportunities “. we had, ”Rogério Ceni evaluated.
Bahia won … but scored 3 goals in 13 minutes
In the previous round, Flamengo beat Bahía, but again had problems with the defensive system, something that Domenéc Torrent could not fix and that, so far, Rogério Ceni has not yet managed. In that match, the team conceded three goals in 13 minutes.
Ceni’s goal difference so far is only two positives, as the team scored 18 goals and conceded 16.
Everton Ribeiro wicked
Responsible for the improbable plays and considered one of the main players in the squad, Everton Ribeiro is not in a good moment and yesterday he again had an erased performance against Fortaleza, being replaced in the second half by Vitinho.
“He is a creative player, his job is to make the ball run. His side, with Isla, is more deteriorated, they are more alone, the game is more on the left side, with Gerson. We need to present a third player to act for him”, Rogério Ceni evaluated.
Injuries have hampered
Rogério Ceni has also had injury problems in the squad. The next time it was goalkeeper Diego Alves – who recently renewed his contract with Flamengo – and attacking midfielder Michael.
Diego Alves has pain in his right thigh. Michael had a problem with his right knee.
Reasonable performance
Rogério Ceni’s performance at the head of Flamengo, so far, is reasonable. With four wins, four draws and two losses, he has 53.3%. Domenéc Torrent, for example, had 62.3%.
You still haven’t pinched the wire
Although he is being a shadow for the leader São Paulo, Flamengo has yet to pinch the lead at the end of any round of the Brazilian Championship.
