Fluminense eliminated from Copa do Brasil after loss to Flamengo: Analysis and Review

The dream of winning the Copa do Brasil for the second time was postponed once again. O Fluminense is eliminated from the tournament after losing 2-0 to Flamengo last Thursday night at Maracanã. Result that is a slap in the face of the tricolor excitement post-title carioca. And at the same time a shock of reality to the limitations that are so evident in the squad when you need the bench.

Flamengo 2 x 0 Fluminense – Best moments – Round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil 2023

First of all, it is necessary to point out: it was a fair elimination in front of what were the two unprecedented Fla-Flus for the Copa do Brasil. In the four halves played, the rival was superior in three: in the two stages of the first leg and in the final stage of the second leg. In the first half of Thursday’s derby, the only period the Fluminense was (slightly) superior, produced little in offensive terms.

And then a reflection is in order: could the Dinizismo, which enchanted Brazil in the first months of the season, be turning into a kind of “Aramelisismo”? Really flat wire, popular saying for harmless attacks, that don’t hurt your opponents. O Fluminense reached an incredible five games without knowing what it is to score goals. And from that sequence, only in the defeat against Corinthians did he manage to create more.

Scout – Flamengo vs Fluminense

Question Flamengo Fluminense
Ball possession 29% 71%
submissions 12 7
goal chances 6 3
tackles 30 18
Accuracy in passes 75% 89%
Fouls committed 10 8
corners 4 10
impediments 5 2

In this Fla-Flu, again the low volume was repeated. Tricolor had more than 70% possession of the ball, but only three chances to score in the entire derby: one in the first half with Cano, in the 28th minute, taking the first shot in the area after a corner kick; and two in the final stage, with Nino in the first seconds, in a defended kick after rebounding; and with Cano at 48, when the Argentine received it in a legal position, he dominated in the chest, but was unable to finish with his heavy leg.

– We cannot say that the top scorer in the world has unlearned how to score goals. That a guy with Arias’ talent doesn’t know how to attack anymore. That Ganso no longer knows how to find a pass. It was details that made the goal not come out – said the tricolor captain Nino, coming out in defense of his teammates when leaving Maracanã.

Flamengo knew how to face and annul the team from Fluminense. With only 29% possession, he had a clear proposal to play in the tricolor errors. Thus, he created six clear chances, three in the same shot, at 33 of the second half: Gerson’s shot face to face with Fábio, Cebolinha’s rebound on the crossbar and Gabigol’s second rebound saved by the goalkeeper. Rubro-Negro also had their two goals, with Arrascaeta and Gabigol, and a two-against-one counterattack wasted by Cebolinha, at 37 minutes of the final stage.

With the blanket Fluminense short after losing four starters (Marcelo, Alexsander and Keno injured and Felipe Melo suspended), the feeling is that the team dropped a lot in performance and reached the limit of what it can do with the pieces available at the moment. To be able to still dream of achievements in 2023, the board will need to seek reinforcements in the July window.

“Fluminense was worse in the 180 minutes and is out of the Cup”, says Gabriel | crowd voice

Until then, Fernando Diniz has to keep trying with what he has at hand to find a solution to a problem that he himself has already pointed out in this sequence of five games without a win: the lack of depth. The criticized Pirani, for example, this time came improvised on the left side and offensively gave more breadth to the sector. Isaac has cutting-edge features, but still looks “green”. Another option is Lelê, who could not play in the Copa do Brasil and, although he is a center forward, he can also play as a winger.

Work to be done is what will not be missing for Diniz to try to replace the Fluminense on the rails. The players reappear this Friday afternoon at CT Carlos Castilho and return to the field next Sunday, when they receive Bragantino at Maracanã, at 4 pm (Brasília time), for the ninth round of the Brazilian Championship.
