The Flamengo will only take the field after the FIFA date, on October 15, against Botafogo. For the classic match, the team from General Severiano will have another significant absence: attacking midfielder Álvaro Montoro.
This Wednesday (08), Álvaro Montoro left the Argentina vs Nigeria match early, in the U-20 World Cup. This is because the Botafogo player felt severe pain in his right shoulder and had to be substituted at the 38th minute of the first half.
Therefore, Botafogo will have the third absence for the match against Flamengo in less than a week. This is because striker Kaio Pantaleão suffered a knee injury and is out for the 2025 season.
In addition to Montoro, Botafogo will also be without midfielder Newton. The player received his third yellow card in the match against Internacional and will serve an automatic suspension against Flamengo, on the 15th.
Thus, Flamengo and Botafogo will only face each other after the FIFA date, on October 15, at 7:30 pm (Brasília time), at Nilton Santos Stadium. The match is valid for the 28th round of the Brazilian Championship. In this way, Coluna do Fla brings all the information.
