We regret that the quality of the image from the club WORLD cup sometimes not have been as good as we could wish. It will be changed to the finals between Liverpool and Flemengo on Saturday, where another technical solution means that you will get a much better experience.
Say december 1981 to a Flamengo fan, and he knows what you are talking about.
December 1981 has been a concept in the brazilian team, and at the Maracanã they are singing about at the time 38 years ago, when they drove around with the englishmen.
13. december 1981 beat the south american champions in Tokyo the european champions from Liverpool in the Intercontinental Cup and became the first world champions of the match.
Now, can Flamengo copy the farm from ’81. The scene is different, however, the opponent and the expectations are the same.
– For the brazilian team is the WORLD cup the biggest. It is the only time where they have the chance to compare themselves with european teams.
– It has completely run up, and they sing about how they win the finals, says the Danish Flamengo-fan Andreas Knudsen, who has held with the club since 1983.

His mother is brazilian, laugh, and during a trip to Brazil, he was infected by the Flamengo-bacille, which has affected over 30 million. brazilians.
He is the only Danish member of Flamengo and follows the club closely. The 44-year-old Danish-brazilian, laugh is even too young to remember the fight in ’81, but have heard much about the ago and also, of course, genset it.
– There are many Flamengo fans, who don’t remember ’81. Maybe they were not born. Yet it is the match against Liverpool, you constantly return to. Back in ’81 …
– It was in its absolute heyday, and you dream, of course, on the repetition, says Andreas Knudsen, who is friends with one of the players from the history of the ’81 team.

Adílio scored the 2-0 against Liverpool in the final in Tokyo, at that time there was not something called the internet and globalization.
– Flamengo knew of course, that Liverpool were a good team, but Adílio have told me, that he knew not a single one of the names of the players that he faced in the tunnel before the match, tells Andreas Knudsen, who some years ago taught Flamengo legend to know in connection with a trip to Brazil.
He was invited into the studio of the club’s radio station, and one of the other guests in the debatprogrammet was the hero from the ’81 Adílio.
– They would like to hear how you looked at Flamengo with the european glasses. I’m probably more analytical and unemotional than the brazilians. For them it is very much about emotions, says Andreas Knudsen.

The emotions so that one earlier in the month, as Flamengos spillerbus were at the airport to travel to Qatar.
They were sent to the WORLD cup as heroes, and had managed to return home with the cup, there will be earnest celebration in the favela.
– The romantic in me believes that we, of course, wins. 3-0 as in 1981. But it is a completely different Liverpool team coming, and it will be very difficult.
– If you get a slap in the face as Santos against Barcelona in 2011, it will not be so pretty, says the Danish Flamengo fan, who are not so lucky to be in Qatar, along with a lot of other flamenguistas.

Jesus is God in the Flamengo
Flamengo have much to thank Jorge Jesus.
The 65-year-old Portuguese with the silver mane came in the summer for the club, but it would be a shame to say that he was received with applause.
Many fans, former players and commentators were negatively disposed towards Jesus. The thought that he was too old and would not be able to adapt to brazilian football.
Nor trænerkolleger in Serie A was excited for the alien. When they had lost to Flamengo, was due to the higher degree of Flamengos good players and a strong economy than portugiseren on the opposite trænerbænk.
But Jorge Jesus, who is primarily known for his many years of Benfica, has really got the last word and is now God in Flamengo. He has gotten the team to play aggressively and with a higher defensive line than you usually see in Brazil.
Under his leadership, the team won the championship convincingly and also the only the second Copa Libertadores title in club history.
Jorge Jesus is a certain lord, who refuse to call themselves ’O prefessor’ as the coach in Brazil is usually called. He goes consistently under the ’Mister’ to show who’s boss.
