Trying to ease the crisis at the start of the season, Flamengo faces Madureira this Monday (02). For the match that is worth a spot in the final of the Campeonato Carioca, Filipe Luís has outlined the red-and-black lineup with Andrew in goal, as has become customary.
Andrew; Emerson Royal, Léo Ortiz, Vitão and Alex Sandro; Evertton Araújo, De La Cruz and Carrascal; Lucas Paquetá, Cebolinha and Pedro.
Yes! So far, Flamengo has five confirmed absences for the match against Madureira. In short, Bruno Henrique is unavailable due to pubalgia. On the other hand, Erick Pulgar, who has muscle pain after the match against Lanús (ARG), was also not included in the squad for this Monday’s (02) match.
Additionally, Flamengo’s Medical Department ruled out Jorginho from the match against Madureira due to the midfielder’s physical wear in the Recopa match, as well as Léo Pereira. Finally, Saúl is still recovering from surgery on his left heel and is not yet available to Filipe Luís.
Finally, Flamengo and Madureira face off starting at 9:00 pm (Brasília time) this Monday (02). The match will be broadcast live on Premiere (pay-per-view) and SporTV (subscription channel). Lastly, Coluna do Fla TV, on YouTube, will be keeping an eye on all the details from pre-game to post-game.
It’s important to note that Flamengo won the first leg 3-0. Therefore, now, if they draw or win by any score, the Most Beloved advances to the final of the Carioca. In fact, Fla can lose by up to two goals and still qualify for the tournament.
