Fluminense clinched their first-ever Copa Libertadores title this past weekend, marking a historic victory in the most prestigious international tournament in South America. The campaign featured an iconic moment when the team staged a remarkable comeback, winning 2-1 against Internacional after trailing until the 80th minute. Their unwavering belief and determination were evident as they defied the odds and executed brilliant quick passes, maintaining control of the ball throughout. Fluminense's performance throughout the tournament consistently showcased their commitment to their style of play, staying true to themselves, and embodying the essence of courage, as emphasized by their coach, Diniz. With Diniz now being coach of Brazil national team as well, it's an opportunity for us to see that in a national level! Thanks for react to Diniz philosophy, and welcome to "Dinizismo"!

VITÓRIA FLUMINENSE

[@likxli.cortes]

O problema é, fluminense não é uma seleção, são times com contrato que podem ser pressionados, o Brasil fez sua perda histórica contra Uruguai, eram anos sem perder...era obrigação do Diniz empatar o jogo pelo menos, já que todos que jogou contra Uruguai empatou ou ganhou, até o time do 7x1 do Brasil conseguiu vencer o Uruguai 😂.... imagina o Brasil pegando uma Argentina e uma França nessa copa, a rivalidade pode ajudar o time a jogar bem, mas o comando do Diniz pode confundir os jogadores e fazer + uma vez uma derrota vergonhosa, espero que o Diniz foca em pelo menos colocar os jogadores na posição certa do campo, o Rodrygo tava no PE junto com o Vinícius jr 😂😂😂 ficamos sem PD .... Complicado

[@prestobatman]

@@likxli.cortes Mas esse é o estilo do Diniz, cara. É óbvio que ele não iria conseguir impor o estilo de jogo dele na seleção por não ter tempo para treinar isso, já que o sistema dele só funciona com treinos constantes para aprimorar a técnica, posicionamento e entrosamento. Mas o presidente asno da CBF (sabendo disso! Porque eu me recuso a pensar que ele possa ser tão burro em não saber que o estilo do Diniz não funciona a curto prazo!), resolveu ter a ideia brilhante de contratar o Diniz (e foda-se o fluminense, né?) pra ser o técnico (ou melhor, um tapa-buraco de gringo). O Diniz deve continuar com seu estilo, nem que perca todos os jogos. Afinal de contas, ele foi contratado por ter esse diferencial. Se fosse pra jogar o feijão com arroz básico, tinha trocentas opções. Quem sabe assim aquele idiota à frente da CBF seja mandado embora também por incompetência de gestão. E assim o Diniz pode focar no Flu, que é o que interessa. Com todo respeito à seleção brasileira de futebol, foda-se a seleção!

[@valadaresrenato]

Well, Fernando Diniz, right now, is the coach of Fluminense and the Brazilian National Team. He won the copa Libertadores last Saturday, the biggest tournament of clubs in South America, which qualifies to play in the FIFA World Cup of clubs, so Diniz can very soon play against Guardiola for a World Champion title

Fluminense just won the Copa Libertadores da América, the South America's Champions League, playing this way. Beautiful match against Boca Juniors from Agentina. Diniz structure has some hidden objectives: the obvious one, to open space; to break the opposition’s D (positional players get lost on what to do when the left wing starts overloading the right wing and the left back is suddenly an offensive midfielder); and the most important that most analysts don't get: your players runs less and the adversary runs A LOT (chasing the ball). Opposing team gets to the second half dead tired, they can't put up with the tempo the full 90 and the spaces suddenly are wide open. Cheers!

[@felipedeornelas8054]

Brazilian here. Your pronunciation of Fluminense is pretty much as good as it gets for a native English speaker. Good job.

[@nerofelpudi]

12:05 It may sound strange, but it is not weird! I'm from Argentina (just next to our brothers/rivals Brazil) for the sudamerican player, this is CORE football at it's simpliest. Most of us (me included) learn how to play in the streets, in our gardens or in any public space. There is no coach there so as kids, we just learn the game by enjoying it For most argentinean players it's harder to play in european "fixed" tactics that in more flexible tactics

[@nerofelpudi]

This is why most people in Argentina will agree this is the reason why we won the WC or why we always have at least 1 player in the very top. When the script wont work, only talented, gifted and ballsy players will have the guts to say "f*ck it, i'm stepping in" Argentina doing great in extra time in the WC matches, Di Maria playing a final like its nothing, Mbappé scoring a hat trick in the same final... If you train the ability to have fun and find a way to score by any means posible, you do not need to stick to the script even if it is not working!

[@CoreyMcKinneyFC]

Thank you for this comment!

[@MrLemmanz]

@@nerofelpudi I hope this inspires brazil to go back to basics too, brazil team became very boring.

[@wilsonvarjao]

And we all learn to play football in closer spaces, like "futsal" courts, yards, etc. We learn to play using short passes, tricks and movement all time. We don't like to wait the ball to come, we're all trying to be in conditions to receive pass and have the ball control. South Americans love the game, but first we worship the ball.

[@washingtonwall]

The point about Ganso for me is why I love this playing philosophy so much. Modern tactics while having many positives have in my opinion restricted the game and taken away from what makes this sport so beautiful with tactics almost hardwired into the player's minds teams feel like they're automated you just don't see those individual moments of magic that make the sport special. The position that Ganso plays the "number 10" or a free roaming attacking playmaker basically doesn't exist anymore in Europe which is extremely sad because those were the players that made me and many others fall in love with the game.

[@defeatstatistics7413]

yeah, there's this idea that Riquelme was the last of the old 10s, and Rosicky at Dortmund (or Modric at Dinamo) were the first of the new; dynamic attacking midfielders whose main responsibility is to lead the press.

[@MatiasDypala]

Hey Corey, i really enjoy your channel, im Argentinian and like our neighbors Brazil and Uruguay our football is more tecnical than tactical oriented, here in the young academies there is no teaching about tactical instructions, just polishing technique, and when the child grow to its teens then starts the tactical teachings. Thats why we have in southamerica the most tecnically gifted players in the world history like Maradona, Pele, Garrincha, Messi, Riquelme, Rivaldo, Ronaldo Nazario, Recoba and Francescoli (both uruguayan), Ronaldinho, Neymar, Aimar, Di María, Ganso, Ramón Díaz, and the list goes on. One of the best examples that i can give you is the Boca Js of the 2000's, that team beat Real Madrid and one of the best AC Milan in history at the Clubs world cup final. Riquelme was the "Ganso" of that team, one of the most tecnically gifted players i've ever seen, he was also a mentor of Messi and teached him how to free kicks. Maradona (often referred as the best footballer in history with Pele and Messi) played in Boca Js and Riquelme inherited his N 10 but Riquelme is the N° 1 idol of Boca Js history even over Maradona. The Number 10 player is always sacred to us, and is a honor to wear the number, bc that means that you are not only the playmaker and the most talented player, but also the master of the orchestra.

[@dovah2167]

In Brazil it's generally how they play when they're young, on the street and it's more about skills so that's why he was talking about the brazilian style of play, because many pro players started like thatso they are definitely accustomed to that

[@DrakenRP]

exactly. thats brazilian football to the core. thats what made we great and fun to watch

[@conandrade]

Your video is very good and, in a way, inspiring. I am a (avid) supporter of Fluminense Football Club - it is the club at the root of Brazilian football, with strong ties to the British; founded in 1902; it's worth getting to know its history up close - and I live next to the club's headquarters, located in the Laranjeiras neighborhood, bordering the Guanabara Palace (former residence of Princess Isabel) - currently the headquarters of the State Government of Rio de Janeiro. Rio de Janeiro was the federal capital until the mid-20th century (just to provide context). Hopefully, what we are witnessing, through this magical institution (without exaggeration), is the rebirth of the Brazilian way of playing football. The famous "beautiful game" was forged in the irreverence of the Brazilian way of being. And this includes Preguinho, Heleno de Freitas, Leônidas, Waldo, Didi, Garrincha, Pelé, Rivelino, Zico, and many other stars of this culturally significant sport. In 2022 and 2023, we saw Fluminense perform, several times, plays like the one in the 4th (magical) goal against Italy in the 1970 World Cup final. The resemblance of Clodoaldo to André is almost unbelievable, I must say. The pass that Pelé gives to Carlos Alberto could be Ganso to Samuel Xavier. And of course, I'm not comparing one player to another. But the way of playing? The same. I can make other references with the 1982 team as well. So, yes, we have seen it before over the last century, but it was lost in the turn of the millennium. Probably (that's a guess..) because the teams that were winning the World Cups were more pragmatic and structured than Brazil, which had seen its "beautiful game" fail even when it was shining. If you are interested, maybe it's worth to watch: Fluminense vs Flamengo (2nd leg of the Campeonato Carioca final) Fluminense vs River Plate (1st leg) Fluminense vs Boca Juniors (1st half and 1st half of extra time) Offensively, it is a very interesting team. But without the ball at their feet, I wish they could be more incisive in their marking. Saudações Tricolores :)

[@CoreyMcKinneyFC]

Thank you!

[@victor-cn2gr]

As a Fluminense fan, I was very happy and grateful for the title, I was at Maracanã and the emotion was indescribable. Diniz revived our love of going to the stadium and watching good offensive football being played, sometimes it seems crazy, but it's a lot of fun to see Fluminense playing with so much quality in the middle of such a congested sector. Such a creative football!!

[@calle9368]

My local club Malmö FF from Sweden is also playing this way and it has been pretty succesful. The biggest issue with this philosophy in my opinion is that it takes time to build these relationships between players. So for an example we bought around 5 players this summer and sold a few, then you need to build new relations with the new players, and then the same thing in the next transfer window. One big positive aspect is that it allows younger players to really shine and not just be part of a system meaning they are more attractive on the transfermarket which also develop the club. One example is Hugo Larsson who moved to Frankfurt for the biggest fee of all time from a Swedish club, he went for more money than Zlatan and Isak!

[@mayuke1944]

Exactly! I follow Fluminense football, and it took about a year for the coach to polish the team and make the most of it. Recently, Fluminense won the Copa Libertadores (equivalent to the Champions League in South America) using players who last year played in the second division of a regional championship in Brazil.

[@calle9368]

@@mayuke1944 Yeah I saw the final too! What I liked from that game was that Fluminense played with a combination of “relationism” while also being cynical, which is something Malmö also need to improve. I can recommend you watch Malmö-Elfsborg this Sunday. It’s the last game of the season between 1st and 2nd, whoever wins the game wins the title!

[@gabrivalen5435]

Fluminense is also in the Copa Libertadores final which is like the Champions League of South America.

[@rodrigobittencourt3592]

As a Fluminense fan I advise you to watch a whole game so you can see this structure working with all the benefits and the eventual flaws. I guarantee you that it's sometimes unsettling as you see the other side of the pitch wide open, but at the end of the day it works. Like you said, it's not for every team and even more for every player. But for those who get used to it and feel comfortable on it, is a joy. Every player touches the ball several times on a single attack, without showboating, playing strictly to the system. The setbacks are on the counter-strikes, with so many people surrounding one area of the field, a stolen ball crossed over to he other side creates problems. That's how most of the goals against Fluminense are born. Sometimes they get the ball back with that pressure, whenever they don't, our defenders better start running..

[@neilgayleard3842]

It's more like old school Brazilian football. It reminds me of how many people play when they are kids.

[@mandoisc]

I always felt this identity loss happened to the Mexican National team as well. Everyone says the new generations are not as talented but the Mexican player is just different. Our players can't compete in strength or speed usually, but they are relentless and never run out of gas as well as having very decent technique. Having foreign coaches trying to implement the European/Argentinian style of football was never going to work. There are of course a lot of other issues that need to be fixed, but getting back to the identity and style of play that suits the players best is crucial.

[@alexandrechaves]

Greetings from Brazil Corey. The Diniz approach is kind of how we play as kids. All the boys want the ball and run all over the pitch, as we do when playing futsal. This is definetelly a brazilian way of do things, with some thick tactics but a lot of improvise.

[@caiocaf1]

This way of playing is very similar to futsal. In another video I read this sentence: "Diniz transforms a football field into 6 futsal courts and advances as if they were stages in a video game"

[@technoir-1984]

Totally right! What he does is a regular way to play futsal. At least in Brazil.

[@gogopedroe1873]

Relationism is playing to the strengths of futsal and street football that most Brazilian players learn to play in. So it's not that crazy for a good Brazilian player to play in that method. It's another thing for a Brazilian player that's been playing for years in Europe, with very rigid positionism

[@pfang32]

Think Luke did a relationism vid. My son's HS team is interesting because they teach positional but kids are kids and the better players skew relationism due to skill differences. None will play D 1 college soccer but a rising tide lifts all ships and from my youth where US programs were all day runners and effort players, there is a bit of flair being developed and kudos to my son's coach who wants players to express themselves while also teaching strong fundamentals in any system

[@pfang32]

Additionally the US soccer fed actually gives the dev programs and youth programs marching orders regarding how to coach them. In Europe players don't play actual games until later in youth than in our country because skill on the ball is paramount and then you fold that in to a game later on. Very interesting when he discussed Dunga and how he tried to kill the Brazilian flair to a certain degree. And how that ties in culturally. You can see it in this game and others that are global like baseball (Japanese players being super sound vs Dominicans who trend power etc) where culture influences trends in sport. Love you content and thanks for helping the beautiful game overtake American sports....2050 it will be #1 I'm calling it lol

[@camilotalavera759]

Corey, you should watch the next Copa Libertadores final between Boca Juniors and Fluminense, the 4th of November!

[@gustavinus]

Using that free space is actually part of the tactics. As well as having numeric advantage to do quick passes and break the defense in the spaces near the ball. Diniz has been doing this for quite some time though. Even in smaller teams with not so good players he was able to pull this off.

[@Ariel_Goldberg]

I ALSO HAD THE SAME STRANGE AND DISBELIEF WHEN SEEING "DINIZISM" THE FIRST TIMES... BUT AFTER SEEING MY TEAM (FLAMENGO) LOSE MATCHES AND FINALS TO HIM AND FLUMINENSE BE LIBERTADORES CHAMPION, I ACCEPTED THAT, ONCE VERY WELL TRAINED AND EXECUTED, THIS GAME STYLE IS ALMOST UNBEATABLE.

[@perfilgenerico8717]

They say the national team was robbed of our adentity but the players themselves make their whole career in europe playing posicional game, previous coach understand that so implemented it too in on the national team, in a team you have the time to get your players used to it but in national teams you get together a couple of weeks separated by months

Many Brazilian football players began their learning on football courts as children. In this modality, the space is small and improvisation is essential. It seems that Fluminense coach adapted this for field footbal.

[@cui576]

When you wonder about the background of these players, If you ever visit "Río de Janeiro", at any beach, you will find yourself amazed watching groups of brazilians from all ages and genders passing a ball without letting it touch the sand. I'm from Argentina, we proudly say "Maradona is the best player in history", "Messi is the GOAT" and we do have a lot of great players, still, we will never have the natural skill Brazilians have to play "pases". I would love for Dinitz to be succesfull with Brazil national team, cause that would mean the return of "Jogo Bonito" I remember from the 90's (hopefully not as succesfull as Argentina nowadays, as we are historic rivals).

[@romulomontes8884]

I say this as a Brazilian: I love the fact that this style of game is growing and it gives me hope. Brazilian football, in my view, in these last cups, sinned for one simple fact: it tried to imitate European football and its "Positionist" style of play. THIS DOESN'T MATCH BRAZILIAN FOOTBALL AND I RISK EVEN TO SAY THAT WITH SOUTH AMERICAN FOOTBALL IN GENERAL. If you take the 1970 Brazilian team, considered by many to be the best that ever existed, they played in this style, with players surrounding the field, not always maintaining a fixed position. When I say that the positionist style doesn't suit Brazilian football, it's because we here learned as children to play football on the street or on small sports courts, with children playing without tactics and without a fixed position.

Suddenly, this content popped to me and I can agree Diniz has a totally different tactics.

If he's really free to choose, why still haven't took Ganso in there? Well, without the free permission, Diniz has to setup on what these 11 main squad can offer and not force Ingenuity in brainless players.

What Diniz is doing is cutting off the "need" to play a positional play and go back to our creative/technical playstyle that isnt centered on who's stronger/faster but on individualism

[@damasek219]

Relationism is probably the best and the most natural way of playing football - that is - if you have a really good players 🙂. They can make it unbeatable, because it's the most fluid, dynamic and adjustable playing philosophy capable of reacting to any style of play. However, less skilled and less-technical players, unless they know each other extremely well, will completely butcher this style and will lose against any tactically sound and more organized team, even if it consists of completely untalented players.

The most uncredible thing is they Win The libertadores with that

Fluminese style of play is the most Brazilian I’ve seen since the 1982 WC team. It’s very free flowing. I think the fact that they (Brazil’s ‘82 team) lost to Italy’s more defensive side when they were clearly the better team made them change their philosophy and from then on Brazilian teams began to play more like, Europeans.

[@Mazrati]

Our philosophy changed when Pep Guardiola became Barca's coach and with his positional play European national teams adopted the formula and we were completely torn apart by France in the 06 Quarter Finals.

Nowadays people give the coach to many power. You should learn about the Vicente Feola Coach from Brazil 1958 World Cup and how he used to take a nap during the matches. Any way he choose Pelé, Garrincha, Zagalo, Newton Santos Telê, Didi, Vavá and so many other genius in that squad so he was able do relax and sleep.

[@CoreyMcKinneyFC]

Wow!

[@Rorther]

Football on 1958 and now, is a TOTALLY different game. You are kinda correct, coach back in the day were more like a manager for players problems, and to literally work as a physical educator.

[@danielbernd]

​@@Rorther If you had Nilton Santos, Telê Santana and Zagalo in the field you would not need any coach back in 58 or in any other period of history at all. Not to mention Didi and the fact that Brazilian national squad never lost a game with Pelé and Garrincha playing together. Brazil 58 national team was the dream team of their time. It was like the american coach having Jordan, Bird, Magic and so on playing. What did the coach do? If he wanted to he also could take a nap during their games.

Fluminense: currently 8th in Série A and have won 11 of their last 26 matches. Doesn't work throughout a proper season campaign.

[@conhecimentoegestao]

Fluminense played with the 2nd team in many games. It is priority was the "Libertadores da América" Cup. América's "Champions" with It ended UP winning last nov/4th.

[@Daniel-vf2oc]

Because they put the second team in much games and work because in brazil much teams dont have the VELOCITY

[@perfilgenerico8717]

Actually Diniz's Fluminense will do the libertadores final against Boca Juniors, so i think you could say it is fairly effective, Diniz is also coaching the brazilian international team while Real Madrid coach Ancelotti doesn't get the job in mid 2024

[@glaucoramos]

You need to know Brazilian plays different from European, this why they are the only 5 times World Champions. The way Fluminense played is typical street soccer , beach soccer. Small pass, fast pass... This why Brazilian and Argentina palyer are the #1 in the World.

[@juanfelipe1530]

Brazilian tactics 🔥🔥

[@gab.americano]

Corey, a supporter of Newcastle! Nice! So in Brazil you'd be Corinthians for sure!

[@rogeriopenna9014]

There is a problem with Diniz tactics and the National Team. The best brazilian players GO to Europe nowadays. Sometimes VERY young. And they are trained more and more in the European model. So if they are called to the national team and the tactics are totally different, it will be VERY difficult for them to adapt, considering it's just a couple of matches at a time with Diniz and then back for a few months of European football before the next Seleção games.

[@Mazrati]

That's why we need Don Carlos because he's a mixture of the two.

[@nailer10]

Other thing, Corey, Fluminense is in the final of LIBERTADORES, wich is equivalent at Champions League in South America, the winner, will go to play the club's worldcup, and we can have Fluminense x Manchester City, who was the champions league winner... imagine that match, It would be beautiful to watch if it happens.

[@CoreyMcKinneyFC]

We as a football community NEED this to happen. I would livestream this with @lukessportsacademy

[@RedDevilSkillz]

@@CoreyMcKinneyFCinter Miami have a chance of making it too. Messi against Real Madrid against next season lol

[@simpliciosantos6997]

See this games: second half Fluminense 5x1 River - Libertadores and second half Vasco 1x1 Fluminense, first round of Brazilian League. Fluminense seems a tractor.

[@fisheye375]

It’s cool. But i don’t think it can work at a very high level. It’s too risky. Coaches like predictables outcomes..this can create paradise or hell for very high professionals😂😂 .but for kids?? This can be amaaaaaazing. Fun and useful to teach the basics. And football is losing more and more creativity because players are just pawns not really allowed to think by themselves too much. So it’s refreshing.

[@marceloliberatodesou]

One thing you could start doing is playing and streaming FIFA (EAFC now) to learn about more players and teams

[@CoreyMcKinneyFC]

That's the goal! Gotta get through this semester because it is killing me, but I will soon be on my streaming game!
