The next match for Flamengo in the Brasileirão will be against Cruzeiro, on Thursday (02), for the Brasileirão. For the clash, coach Leonardo Jardim may have a 'boost'. It's Sinisterra.
The Colombian forward missed Cruzeiro's last match, which was against Vasco, due to a muscle strain. At the moment, Sinisterra has returned to training with his teammates, however, only during the activities will Leonardo Jardim know if he will have the athlete available against Flamengo.
SAYS, LEONARDO JARDIM!
— In this preparation (against Vasco), he (Sinisterra) had a strain in the tibial discs, something that improves in six or seven days. He has already started integration work. Let's see if this week we can get him to train and we can count on his presence in the game – said Leonardo Jardim, on Saturday (27).
Yes! While Sinisterra is still in doubt, Cruzeiro will count on the returns of Gabigol and Vilalba against Flamengo. The duo missed out against Vasco, on Saturday (27), as they served a suspension for the third yellow card.
Flamengo arrives highly motivated for the 'decision' with Cruzeiro after beating Corinthians, by 2 to 1, away from home. With this result, Mengão took the isolated lead of the Brasileirão, with 54 points.
Flamengo x Cruzeiro takes place at 8:30 pm (Brasília time) this Thursday (02), at Maracanã.
