Flamengo went through a ‘war’ on the pitch against Estudiantes (ARG) in the third round of the Libertadores group stage. Bruno Henrique was one of the Rubro-Negro players who suffered the most. After taking a hard foul from Palacios, the number 27 ended up suffering trauma to his right foot.
According to information obtained by the Coluna do Fla newsroom, Bruno Henrique did not suffer a fracture in the area, but he is still feeling a lot of pain in his foot. Given the situation, the forward will undergo another medical evaluation when the team returns to training, which takes place this Friday (01) at CT Ninho do Urubu.
When Flamengo arrived back on the morning of this Thursday (30), Bruno Henrique showed clear signs of pain in the affected area. Even so, there is still anticipation over whether the player will be fit to play in the derby against Vasco on Sunday (03) in the Brasileirão.
The play that led to the trauma in Bruno Henrique’s foot happened in the second half of the match in La Plata, Argentina. On that occasion, Tomás Palacios came in high and delivered a heavy hit on Flamengo’s number 27. Despite the seriousness of the play, referee Piero Maza did not even show a card to the player from the Argentine team.
While Bruno Henrique will be re-evaluated, the Flamengo squad is focused on the team’s upcoming commitments this season. On Sunday (03), the Rubro-Negro returns to the field to face Vasco in the 14th round of the Brasileirão. In short, the match kicks off at 4:00 PM (Brasília time) at the Maracanã. As usual, Coluna do Fla TV will cover all the details of the match on YouTube, as well as on the website and social media.
