Flamengo faces Madureira again, this time in the second leg of the Carioca semifinal. Given this situation, Coluna do Fla brings you the information on what the Rubro-Negro needs to do to secure a spot in the State Championship final.
SEE THE COMBINATIONS FOR FLAMENGO TO SECURE A SPOT IN THE CARIOCA FINAL
Win – Flamengo qualifies Any draw – Flamengo qualifies Loss by two goals – Flamengo qualifies Loss by three goals – Penalties Loss by four goals – Madureira qualifies
In the first match between Flamengo and Madureira, the Rubro-Negro team won 3-0 at Maracanã. With this result, Mengão can lose by up to two goals this Monday (02) and still advance to the Carioca final.
In addition to this advantage, Flamengo can also draw by any score and ‘stamp’ their ticket to the final. In other words, the Rubro-Negro only loses the spot directly if they are defeated by Madureira by four goals. Finally, if Madureira wins by the same score as Flamengo did in the first leg, the match will go to penalties.
Flamengo has five confirmed absences for the match against Madureira. Starting with Saúl Ñíguez, who is still recovering from surgery on his left heel. Bruno Henrique is also out, as he is suffering from pubalgia. Erick Pulgar and Jorginho are also absent, as they will be rested due to physical fatigue.
The match between Flamengo and Madureira takes place at 9:00 PM (Brasília time) this Monday (02), at Maracanã. As usual, Coluna do Fla TV will provide detailed coverage of the match with on-site reporting by Rodrigo Lima and Rock Hudson on YouTube, as well as on their website and social media. The match will also be broadcast on SporTV (cable) and Premiere (pay-per-view).
