On the other side, Flamengo presented its own set of challenges as Felipe Luiz utilized Alcaraz in a central forward role. Raí expressed skepticism about this strategy, suggesting that Luiz's experimentation struggled to yield positive results.

However, Raí warned that it remains uncertain how this reshuffling will play out in the long term, particularly with crucial matches in the Campeonato Carioca and the impending Supercopa do Brasil on the horizon.
