Sorry for the inconvenience, but we need to talk about Flamengo. What a comeback! What a result! A victory achieved with grit, with a lot of heart, fight, and dedication from our players and coaching staff. In the final minutes, without ever giving up. Mengão beat Cruzeiro 2-1, with goals from Guerrero and Mancuello, reaching 53 points and remaining one point behind leaders Palmeiras. Next week, the "Mais Querido" plays at Morumbi against São Paulo. Before Saturday's match, once again in Cariacica, Flamengo faces Palestino in the Copa Sudamericana.
But Flamengo... They mistreat me, they sweep me away, what a thrill in my heart! And they left the field with a vengeance. A difficult game, with the opponent making things difficult from start to finish. They were tight, not giving the red-and-black team many options, as they tried to create the best chances from the wings.
It was a "Oh, Jesus" indeed. The opposing goalkeeper blocked our chances, whether in the first or second half. The fans in attendance didn't give up; they pushed, insisted, and played along with the team. Not even when Rafinha broke through our defense and made it 1-0 did the roar from the stands at Klebão stop echoing. Hoarse, but hopeful. To encourage or drown out the opposing fans' celebration, the Nation sang.
On the bench, Zé Ricardo changed the team. First, Mancuello. Then, Fernandinho and Alan Patrick. Persistence, searching for opportunities. Win, win, win. DNA is DNA.
Guerrero received the ball, turned, shot, and counted on a defender's deflection to equalize. The goal kept the team believing, seeking the three points, finding its purpose in the match. The stadium erupted, and Mengão grew and pushed forward.
And from Mancuello's feet, into the goalkeeper's corner, came the winning goal. Shouted, suffered, cried, celebrated by all. Symbolic, for the 100% retention in Cariacica, for the championship fight, for the Nation, for everything.
The phrase applies to one, two, or 40 million. Sorry for the inconvenience, but it needs to be said once more.
I would be deeply saddened if Flamengo were missing from the world!
