Alex Sandro ruled out of Flamengo’s next match against Bahia | OneFootball

Flamengo faces Bahia next Sunday (05), in Salvador

Flamengo faces Cruzeiro this Thursday (02), at Maracanã, in a match valid for the Brazilian Championship. Still in the first half, Alex Sandro committed a hard foul, received a yellow card, and is suspended for the match against Bahia.

This is because, at ten minutes into the first half, Alex Sandro tried to steal the ball from midfielder Matheus Pereira. However, the Cruzeiro player was winning the play and was stopped with a foul. As a result, the red-black received the third yellow card and is suspended.

WHAT NOW, FLAMENGO?

With Alex Sandro suspended, coach Filipe Luís will have two other options to replace the experienced defender. Thus, Ayrton Lucas and Matías Viña are alternatives for the match against Bahia, at Arena Fonte Nova.

WHEN DOES FLAMENGO PLAY?

Thus, without the presence of Alex Sandro, Flamengo faces Bahia on Sunday (05), at 6:30 PM (Brasília time), at Arena Fonte Nova, in Salvador. The match in the Bahian capital is valid for the 27th round of the Brasileirão.

Thus, as usual, Coluna do Fla brings all the information about the match directly from Arena Fonte Nova, with reporting by Pedro Paulo Catonho. Finally, Prime Video, via streaming, will broadcast the match held in Salvador.
