Flamengo returns to the field this Sunday (22), when they face Madureira in the first leg of the semifinals of the Carioca. For the match, coach Filipe Luís has two confirmed absences so far.
Currently, the two absentees for Flamengo are Jorginho and Saúl. While the midfielder follows the recovery plan set by Fla's Medical Department, the midfielder is recovering from ankle surgery.
On the other hand, despite the two absences, Flamengo may 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). Therefore, the forward has a chance to appear on the list of players selected by coach Filipe Luís after the team's last practice.
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 game of the Carioca, scheduled for March 2.
It is worth noting that the Flamengo vs. Madureira match 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 to post-game.
