Flamengo faces Sport with ‘an entire team’ out

The list of absences for Flamengo for the match against Sport this Saturday (15th) keeps growing. According to a report by Coluna do Fla, Léo Ortiz and Jorginho are also out of the game at Arena de Pernambuco.

Defender Léo Ortiz is still recovering from ankle pain caused by trauma to the area. Jorginho, meanwhile, is progressing in his rehabilitation process and is already doing on-field activities alongside physiotherapy and physical preparation after his thigh injury.

However, both remain out because there is still a high risk of aggravation if they return this Saturday (15th). Thus, Léo Ortiz and Jorginho join the other nine players who had already been confirmed as absences earlier.

WHO ARE THE OTHER NINE ABSENCES?

Flamengo is also facing a long list of absences due to call-ups for the FIFA international break. Alex Sandro and Danilo will play for the Brazilian National Team, while Arrascaeta, Varela, and Viña will join the Uruguayan squad. In addition, Carrascal and Plata have been called up by Colombia and Ecuador, respectively.

To top it off, the club will also be without Pedro, who is recovering from a fracture in his right arm. Allan, undergoing treatment for plantar fasciitis, is also out, increasing the number of absences for the clash with Sport.

WHAT ARE THE DETAILS OF THE FLAMENGO VS. SPORT MATCH?

Flamengo returns to the pitch this Saturday (15th), when they face Sport. Thus, the ball rolls at 6:30 pm (Brasília time), at Arena de Pernambuco.

As usual, Coluna do Fla TV will show the details of the match, which is valid for the 12th (postponed) round of the Campeonato Brasileiro, through YouTube, as well as the website and social media. Finally, Amazon Prime Video (streaming) will broadcast the match.
