Pedro scored one of the goals in Flamengo’s win over Santos last Sunday (05) at the Maracanã, in the Brasileirão. As a result, the Gávea number 9 drew level with Gabigol in the club’s top scorers ranking in the 21st century and could overtake him this Wednesday (08).
At the moment, Pedro has found the net 161 times wearing the Flamengo shirt this century. The striker has the same number of goals as Gabigol, who is now at Santos. In other words, the number 9 has every chance to surpass Gabi’s mark against Cusco (PER) on Wednesday (08), in the team’s Libertadores opener.
161 – Gabigol [161]- Pedro 112 – Bruno Henrique 101 – Arrascaeta 73 – Renato Abreu 47 – Vágner Love 47 – Obina
However, coach Leonardo Jardim will only decide Flamengo’s lineup on matchday. That is because the Portuguese coach will lead one final training session at CT Ninho do Urubu this Tuesday (07), before traveling to Peru.
Flamengo’s match against Cusco is scheduled for 9:30 p.m. Brasília time this Wednesday (08), in Peru, in the club’s Copa Libertadores opener. Therefore, Coluna do Fla will bring the main updates on the Rubro-Negro through its social media channels.
