What happened between Flamengo players before training at the Ninho do Urubu training center?
Arrascaeta went viral on social media in recent days with a video in which the doneness of the meat he was cutting caught people’s attention. Given the situation, Flamengo opened a poll on the topic before training at the Ninho do Urubu training center, which sparked discussion among the players.
Through social media, Flamengo showed the players’ banter as they answered about their preferred ideal doneness for meat. Trying to defend his countryman, De La Cruz said that in Uruguay they eat it well-done.

The other players, meanwhile, preferred medium and rare meat. As a result, the conversation kept going and even produced plenty of laughs from the squad whenever someone disagreed with a teammate’s choice.

What is Arrascaeta’s situation at Flamengo?
If Arrascaeta sparks debate as a grill master, on the field the Uruguayan has been pleasing everyone. That’s because, in recent matches, the No. 10 has stood out and delivered strong performances in the Sacred Jersey.
In Flamengo’s qualification for the Libertadores semifinal, Arrascaeta was even the main man. With the result still open against Del Valle (ECU), the midfielder took advantage of a mistake by the Ecuadorian goalkeeper to equalize and seal passage to the next round of the continental tournament.
Was Arrascaeta called up for Uruguay in this FIFA international window?
During this FIFA international window, Arrascaeta will be absent from Flamengo training because he is representing Uruguay. Thus, the Flamengo No. 10 is part of the first squad of La Celeste under coach Diego Forlán. Besides the midfielder, Varela is also among those called up.
How is Flamengo doing during the FIFA international window?
During this FIFA international break, Arrascaeta’s Flamengo is doing very well, thank you very much. At the moment, Rubro-Negro sits alone at the top of the Brasileirão with 60 points, three more than Palmeiras. Finally, in the Libertadores, Mengão is a semifinalist and will face Estudiantes (ARG).
What is Flamengo’s next game?
Flamengo’s next game of the season will be against Santos on October 8 in the Brasileirão. In short, the ball starts rolling at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at Vila Belmiro.
