Análise: Flamengo vê histórico de Gabigol, mas expõe erros e péssimo histórico contra o Atlético na Copa LibertadoresThe script seemed ready: it would involve Gabigol, a record and an impressive victory at the El Cilindro Stadium. But instead anger was heightened by the way Flamengo were held to a 1-1 (4) draw by Racing on Tuesday. The Rubro-Negro transformation was evident in the duel that would be played in the third round of Group A of the Copa Libertadores.

Flamengo 05/04/2023 Jorge Sampaoli's men took control of the game and saw the home team take the opportunity to equalize with nothing to celebrate. These points could be costly for Flamengo, who still want to evolve. The team faced a difficult scenario from the beginning. The game was hectic and the red-blacks seemed to be trapped in marking. It's up to Everton Ribeiro to be the escape valve, working the ball and looking for attacks, especially with Ayrton Lucas. When Hauche resorted to violence and left Racing, one less and Rubro-Negro became more embarrassed. With Ayrton Lucas and Pulgar in good shape, the ball started to get close to Pedro and Gabigol. Number 9 was far from his best day. Gabigol received a beautiful pass, however, and ended up wide open after facing the gaping goal. Although he had opportunities, his 30th Copa Libertadores goal was a miracle. Erick Pulgar's free kick slowly reached his feet. Shirt 10 leaves the marking and the ball bounces and he sends it into the net with his shin. It was the end of the drought with the ball rolling. The fast has been in effect since Fast 15, in the State Championship game against Volta Redonda. - That's your thing. For me, a goal is a goal. Penalty goal, free kick goal, corner goal, butt goal, left foot goal, right foot goal. A goal is a goal. I'm happy to help the team, not with energy, it's a shame. This is more important – he said, in an interview with Conmebol.

Flamengo had another one, but lost its way, acted bureaucratically and took many risks. There were retreats in dangerous positions, which caused Santos to miss the goal. Coach Jorge Sampaoli launched Arrascaeta and Bruno Henrique (both still recovering their game rhythm) in the 19th minute, leaving the 2019 quartet on the field together for a few minutes. Everton Ribeiro later replaced Everton Cebolinha. But then Flamengo failed miserably. The defense was vulnerable and created opportunities for Racing to improve. Until a hasty tackle on a tackle that ended with Wesley being sent off and a frontal foul. The Argentine team equalized with a great goal from Oroz. Jorge Sampaoli's team made some obvious mistakes. He attacked Flamengo and left a gap for the opponent to attack. Saliadarre was the most dangerous, demanding the Santos goalkeeper and hitting the post with a shot. At Abafa's base, Gabigol tries to involve Bruno Henrique, but the pass goes wrong. The number 10 also saw a shot from Arrascaeta fall in front of his feet, but passed and had a chance when Thiago Maia put his foot in and hit the post. As Rubro-Negro “starred” in the match, as Jorge Sampaoli said, the team clearly still has room to improve. It is up to Flamengo to find the best way to ensure that the red and black plans for the Copa Libertadores do not stagnate in the middle and paralyzed by anxiety. Promising nights like last Thursday (4) cannot leave a feeling of waste as a final memory.
