CBF mulls date for Flamengo v Mirassol in the Brasileirão | OneFootball

Brasileirão’s fourth round had a postponed match between Flamengo and Mirassol

The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) has set a tentative date for the postponed match between Flamengo and Mirassol, valid for the fourth round of the Brasileirão. As a result, the game should take place on September 2 (Wednesday).

This is because the CBF has reserved the next two weeks for the Copa do Brasil quarterfinals. Since Flamengo and Mirassol are no longer in the competition, the governing body wants to use the gap in the teams’ schedules to play the postponed match.

Flamengo and Mirassol have already been notified by the CBF. Because of this, the expectation is that the match date will be confirmed in the coming days in the official Brasileirão schedule. In addition, security authorities have given the green light for the game to be held. The information comes from ‘GE’.

Why was the Flamengo vs Mirassol match postponed?

The match between Flamengo and Mirassol, at the Maracanã, was originally scheduled for February 25. However, the game had to be postponed due to Flamengo’s participation in the Recopa Sudamericana, against Lanús (ARG). On that occasion, the Argentine team won the title after a 4-2 aggregate victory.
