Flamengo returns to the field this Sunday (22) to face Madureira in the first leg of the Carioca semifinals. For the match, coach Filipe Luís has two confirmed absences so far.
Currently, the two absences for Flamengo are Jorginho and Saúl. While the midfielder follows the recovery plan established by Flamengo's Medical Department, the playmaker is recovering from ankle surgery.
On the other hand, despite the two absences, Flamengo might have two reinforcements for the game against Madureira. This is because Plata served a suspension in the South American Recopa but is available for the Carioca.
Additionally, Wallace Yan, who experienced muscle pain, trained with the group on Saturday (21). Thus, the forward has a chance to appear on the squad list defined by coach Filipe Luís after the team's last activity.
Flamengo and Madureira will face off starting at 8:30 PM (Brasília time) this Sunday (22). Thus, whoever wins will have an advantage for the decisive semifinal match of the Carioca, scheduled for March 2.
It is worth noting that the match between Flamengo and Madureira will be broadcast live via Premiere (pay-per-view), SporTV (subscription channel), and GE TV (YouTube). Finally, Coluna do Fla TV, on YouTube, will keep an eye on all the details from pre-game to post-game.
