Flamengo awarded for not giving up
Firstly, Flamengo was rewarded for not giving up. From the first minute to the last, Flamengo looked for the goal.
Flamengo's B team was better than Corinthians' A team
Coach Renato Gaúcho chose to rest the main players in the squad, thinking about the final to be played in the Libertadores da América.
The option is important, as there is always the risk of injury, as happened to the player Rodrigo Caio in the game against São Paulo.
Currently, Flamengo has prioritized the Libertadores, obviously the Brasileiro is very difficult, Galo is very close to the title.
As the game went on, Flamengo's B team played better, and managed to nullify Corinthians' A team.
And they even managed to create some goal opportunities, but they were unable to open the scoring.
Bruno Henrique's entry gave the team much more movement, the player had his first chance to score, but he kicked the ball into Cássio's defense.
In addition to creating more opportunities, Bruno Henrique's quality ends up causing more concern for the opposing team.
Currently Bruno Henrique is one of the main players in Brazilian Football.
Often decisive, player Michael did not shine against Corinthians.
Rodinei shone
As the game approached the end, the often overlooked Rodinei made an excellent play on the right.
He made a perfect cross for Bruno Henrique to head against goalkeeper Cássio and score the winning goal.
When everyone was expecting a great move from another player, full-back Rodinei appears and resolves the game.
In addition to winning the game, the Flamengo team gains morale for the Libertadores final, and manages to leave without injuring its players.
Coach Renato Gaúcho ended up happy to get the victory without having to use his main players all the time.
Contrary to what happened with the Palmeiras team against São Paulo, Flamengo came out victorious.
Player Bruno Henrique had complained of pain in his knee, but tests ruled out the injury, much to the relief of the fan.
The pain is due to inflammation in the left knee, which is being treated for the athlete to reach 100%.
The next game
The next match will be away from home against Internacional on Saturday at 9:30 pm. Another difficult game, but coach Renato promises a strong team.
