Don't you think Chelsea must have learnt a severe lesson from their previous defeat to flamengo and would make all necessary adjustment to avoid something like that to happen again and moreover flamengo is probably the strongest team in the Brazilian league so their is that fact, so Chelsea might just have the upper hand in defeating them.
The problem y'all have is that you underestimate these teams and expect too much from a game, only to get disappointed with it. Chelsea shouldn't have lost to the flamengos then if that was the case -- but the truth is, we still don't know how well they've adjusted/ how penetrable their opponents defense will be.
Brazilian teams are built different and for whatever it takes, they'll score goals if they had to. I feel like Chelsea is not in the right form to go past this phase in this competition. I don't wanna lie to myself, but we can all see the pattern of play -- unless it takes a different shape tomorrow, Palmeiras will win and qualify.
Yeah, coming to the realisation that this competition has also thought me not to always believe that it's the bigger team that will emerge victorious. So many games here has shown us that we should brace up for uncertainty because we will still see it so long as this competition is concerned. The South American teams has really shown zeal and commitment, even the only Saudi side that's left has also made a statement of fact that they can't be overlooked anymore. Sooner or later we will see them competing against the very best teams in the world.
