Conmebol keeps yellow cards for Flamengo v Cruzeiro Libertadores tie | OneFootball

Conmebol has kept yellow cards in place for this year’s early Libertadores knockouts, so Flamengo carry bookings into their last-16 meeting with Cruzeiro, according to Coluna Do Fla.

Luiz Araújo is the only Flamengo player on two cautions from the group stage, although the winger misses the first leg at Mineirão as he recovers from a knee injury.

The first leg is under way at Mineirão on Wednesday 12.

The return is scheduled for 21:30, Brasília time, on Wednesday 19 at the Maracanã.

Bookings will be wiped only from the semi-finals. If Flamengo progress to the quarter-finals, they will face the winners of Tolima or Independiente Del Valle, who meet on Thursday 13.

Flamengo recorded the joint-lowest tally in the group stage, with four bookings across six matches, level with Corinthians, Argentinos Juniors and Nacional Potosí.
