If it were a team of young people, full of unknown players at the beginning of their careers, we could even consider it nervous, but this Flamengo team is mostly made up of very experienced players, including their coach is very experienced, he was the coach of the Brazilian team during the last world cup. What's missing there is tactical adjustment, Flamengo has been playing very inconsistently.
I have always thought that in Flamengo things are getting into crisis like this because it is normal sometimes for teams to have that happen , because lately what they Showed in the Copa Libertadores was very good, in fact this team has given a lot of fight to a Santos, a Palmeiras that wow is on another level.
Personally, I like these teams because they Show happy football, the truth is that the Brazilian technique is very good, I have always said one thing, when we look for strong and beautiful emotions we should not hesitate, we have to look at how these teams play, Brazilian teams, I don't know if you remember when Neymar played for Santos, it was another level, when they had to play against Barcelona in the Intercontinental they lost, but that was when Ney pushed himself towards European Football , but in reality Brazil is the school.
I don't know if the future holds anything good for Brazil regarding football... in the past, 10, 15 years ago it was common to see children on the streets playing football, various talents were born there, skills were trained from a very young age during these matches on the street... nowadays with the advancement of the internet, most children and young people just want to be on the internet... leaving aside typical games, like playing ball and playing in the street... It will become increasingly rare to appear outstanding players in Brazil.
I don't know if I'm too pessimistic... but that's the only thing I can see about it
When it comes to club , I don't see Brazil having a another crazy run to win Liberdatores cup year after year and that is because more and more players are leaving for Europe club at a very early age and that will automatically affect their clubs performance. However , when it comes to international football , Brazill will always be top3 and always one of the favorites to win World Cup but also Copa America and personally , I'm a huge Brazilian fan when they play at world cup and maybe with a bit of luck we can win at USA 2026
