After another defeat and last place in the Brasileirão, Fluminense coach, Fernando Diniz, commented on the situation in his position, and the last place
The situation of Fernando Diniz at the Fluminense It’s getting increasingly difficult, after the team’s new defeat, this time to Cruzeiro, in the Brasileirão. The commander admitted that it has been getting complicated, but assured that the team, current Libertadores champion, will return in the very near future.
“If you talk about the season (2024)… When we had the wind completely in our favor, with the fans on our side and it was easier, we were very lenient. I attribute this a lot to winning the Libertadores. And now the team is coming back. In today’s game, I think it gave a positive response that didn’t translate into the result of the game. The team can have a great season again“, analyzed the coach.
THANK YOU very much for Carioca 2023, Libertadores and Recopa. But NO MORE!!!!
Cycles end and yours is over, Fernando Diniz. Leave Fluminense and leave before leaving us in series B. 6 points in 30 games.

At another point, Diniz also admitted that being at the bottom of the competition also affects the players’ psychology. With the commented defeat, the team is in last place due to goal difference, losing to Victorywho has not yet entered the field in the current round.
“Of course (being in the flashlight) makes a difference. It’s a horrible feeling. Too bad. You have to be strong, work hard and find solutions so that Fluminense can get out of this situation. You have all the conditions to get out of this […] (About meetings for a possible dismissal) We have meetings naturally, we don’t have meetings just because of the moment. The meetings take place every week, almost every day I have a meeting with Paulo Angioni. I talk to Fred, so it’s nothing that alarming“, he added.
Currently, there are three defeats for the team in a row, stopped by positive results in other competitions, such as the Copa do Brasil. In the Brasileirão, the team only has one victory, against Vasco, in the second round, but since then they have struggled to get the three points.
