It's Copa day, Nation! Flamengo and Racing (ARG) face off in the first leg of the semifinals of the Libertadores of America this Wednesday (22), at 9:30 PM (Brasília time). The big question in Filipe Luís's team lineup was whether or not to use Léo Ortiz in the team that starts the match. Check below if the number 3 is on the list.
Starters: Agustín Rossi; Varela, Danilo, Léo Pereira and Alex Sandro; Erick Pulgar, Jorginho and Arrascaeta; Carrascal, Luiz Araújo and Pedro.
Substitutes: Matheus Cunha, Emerson Royal, Léo Ortiz, João Victor, Ayrton Lucas, Evertton Araújo, Saúl, De La Cruz, Michael, Samuel Lino, Bruno Henrique and Gonzalo Plata.
Léo Ortiz became a doubt after suffering a ligament sprain in his right ankle on Sunday (19), against Palmeiras. However, the defender underwent intensive treatment, in three shifts, to be fit for the Libertadores semifinal. Therefore, the number 3 is listed but starts as a substitute.
Other than that, the Flamengo team doesn't have major news. In the midfield, the trio that has been successful this season, with Erick Pulgar, Jorginho and Arrascaeta. In the attack, Pedro is the great hope for goals in the Rubro-Negro. In good form, Carrascal won the spot over Samuel Lino, after all.
Flamengo and Racing will be broadcast by Globo for all of Brazil, as well as shown on GETV, on YouTube. Additionally, Paramount Plus will show the match that will determine the first finalist for the Copa Libertadores da América 2025, against LDU (EQU) or Palmeiras.
