🎥 Flamengo blunder, concede 4️⃣ to ruthless Bayern, crash out | OneFootball

Flamengo bid farewell to the FIFA Club World Cup this Sunday (29).

After leading their group, the Rubro-Negro faced Bayern Munich right in the round of 16.

And they were eliminated after losing 4 x 2 in front of 60,914 spectators at the Hard Rock Stadium, in Florida.

It was a "show" of individual and collective errors against a lethal rival. And that had, for example, a decisive Kane.

Such a result guaranteed another quarter-final duel: PSG 🆚 Bayern.

Rubro-Negro makes mistakes and... Bayern thanks!

Flamengo's first mission in Florida was to have "zero error" (or something close) against a high-level rival.

That's not what happened in the first few minutes.

Filipe Luís's team was overflowing with nervousness on the field.

Pulgar, against, opened the score (6').

Shortly after, at ten, Arrascaeta had the ball stolen and Kane extended the lead.

Goals that completely transformed everything that had been planned on the Rubro-Negro side.

Neuer personified the phrase "Every goalkeeper turns into Neuer against Flamengo" by frustrating Luiz Araújo with a great save (14').

Flamengo's growth came from the change in tactics to target the opponent's area, working more from the wings.

And it resulted in Gerson's goal (33').

The problem (for Flamengo) is that the errors without possession did not stop.

Luiz Araújo appeared well in defense, but cleared to the middle. And Goretzka, under no pressure, had time to extend the lead (41').

Fla starts well in the 2nd half, but...

The Rubro-Negro returned well from the break.

They started to have more productive ball possession.

And they reduced the deficit with Jorginho (9') after Olise committed a penalty.

But the errors returned to "play against" the Brazilian team.

Luiz Araújo took responsibility, but lost the ball. And the lethal Kane scored another (27').

Filipe Luís made three substitutions at once. Including the entry of De La Cruz.

The mission (to seek two goals) was not simple.

Flamengo fought, but without resulting in new goals.

Controlling the actions, Bayern had only one more great chance.

Schedule 📅

PSG and Bayern will face each other next Saturday (5) at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium, in Atlanta.

And the winner will have Dortmund, Monterrey, Real Madrid or Juventus as a rival in the semifinal.

Flamengo now focuses on the continuation of the season with Brasileirão and decisive stages of Libertadores and Copa do Brasil.

They are likely to play in two weeks, on the 13th, against São Paulo. Game at Maracanã and valid for the 13th round of BR-2025.
