After Flamengo's 90-84 victory over Botafogo, on Monday night (12), Flamengo coach José Neto spoke to the press in the mixed zone of Arena Carioca 1 and analyzed the result of the classic.
"I could make many excuses here, because we didn't perform as we expected in this match, especially considering Botafogo's qualification and the game we played against them in the first round. I think the main aspect is that something was missing, even on my part as coach, in terms of being able to empower the team to be more aggressive and solid defensively, and in attack as well," said José Neto.
