After defeating Vitória 2-1 in Salvador, Flamengo followed the schedule released by the club and gave the team a day off this Wednesday (11). Next, the Rubro-Negro will turn their attention to the classic match against Botafogo and will have three days of training to prepare for the clash.
On Thursday (12), the team will gather again at Ninho do Urubu and start preparing for the next commitment. Flamengo faces Botafogo on Sunday (15), at Nilton Santos Stadium, for the quarterfinals of the Campeonato Carioca.
The gathering on Thursday (12) is scheduled for 3:30 PM (Brasília time), at Ninho do Urubu. The following two training sessions will take place from 9:30 AM (Brasília time). Thus, Filipe Luís organizes the preparation with full focus on the classic, distributing the workload and adjusting the final details of the team before the clash.
Flamengo and Botafogo face each other at 5:30 PM (Brasília time) on Sunday (15). The single-match game is worth a spot in the semifinals of the Carioca. The black-and-white team will have the advantage of playing on the synthetic field at Engenhão, having had the best campaign in the first phase.
This is because the rival led Group B, and Flamengo finished in fourth place. It is worth noting that in case of a tie in the quarterfinals, the classification will be decided by a penalty shootout.
