Pay attention to goals conceded in the first few minutes
Captain Leo Moura and striker Diogo ask the team to enter the field focused from the start of each match

For the second consecutive time in the 2010 Brazilian Championship, Flamengo conceded a goal before the tenth minute of play. This was the case against Fluminense over the weekend, and this Wednesday (September 22.09nd) against Grêmio, the team also had to play catch-up from the start. The away draw was heroic, but the team from Gávea sounded the alarm about conceding goals so quickly.
The situation is not pleasing the red-black players, who know they need to be a little more careful to prevent this from happening again.
"We have to be more careful. This isn't the first time this has happened and we need to stay alert, because it's difficult to catch up later," said Captain Leonardo Moura.
Striker Diogo praised the red-blacks' good performance against the Gauchos, but also emphasized that it is difficult to fall behind on the scoreboard, especially at the beginning of the games.
"We ended up faltering at the beginning and that can't happen. The team played well, created chances and had to wake up after the goal. We need to stay focused from the beginning to avoid conceding silly goals," he observed.
Flamengo's next challenge takes place on Saturday (25.09), at 18:30 pm, at Engenhão. Coach Silas' team hosts Palmeiras, ninth in the table with 32 points.
