Flamengo and Bayern Munich face off next Sunday (29/6) in the round of 16 of the Club World Cup
Midfielder Jorginho predicted the match against Bayern in the round of 16 as a “very difficult” match, but pointed out that the German team will also have flaws and that Flamengo will look for them. Jorginho praised the German team, highlighting the strong collective play they demonstrated in the World Cup.
The Flamengo midfielder also considered that the Bavarian team’s mentality is a point of attention for the Rio de Janeiro team. “I believe that their collective is very strong, very well trained, so the individual players are certainly also very strong, very good, but [they] have weaknesses – like all teams. We have to try to find them in order to come away with the victory. […] It will certainly be a very tough game, even due to the mentality and seriousness of the Germans”, said Jorginho.
In the 1-1 draw against LAFC (USA) this Tuesday (24), Jorginho provided the pass for Wallace Yan’s goal. With the result, Flamengo finished its participation in the first phase as leader of Group D, with seven points.
