Flamengo fought, showed grit and didn't give up on the good result, but lost to Corinthians this Sunday (25.10), away from home. After the match, Oswaldo de Oliveira analyzed the match and praised the team's attitude, which applied pressure and had a good volume of play when they were down to ten men on the field, after Jonas was sent off.
Check out the main moments:
Analysis
The game was balanced; we'd had some moments of dominance in midfield. We managed to contain Corinthians' key plays and had opportunities to make dangerous passes into the opponent's half. It's not a creditable thing, but I think that with one player down for almost the entire second half, the team showed poise, and the players were able to make up for their teammate's absence, demonstrating tremendous effort and discipline.
Fight for the G-4
We won't give up. From the moment we have a numerical chance, we'll insist on adding points and seeking the top spot. Don't let discouragement get you down. This is our profession, that's why we fight. Despite the numbers, except for the match against Figueirense, and even today against the leader, the virtual champion, they weren't dominated, they didn't give up. We're still playing for 18 points; we have six games to play.
Wins
We can't escape the result. We have opponents with the same goal. We've achieved several consecutive victories, but now we're not achieving them. By playing matches like today's, which are balanced, or like against Internacional, where we actually created more chances than our opponent, we'll seek the result.
