Flamengo to finalise XI before Cruzeiro decider as Carrascal dedicates goal to Colombia | OneFootball

Flamengo will finalise their XI on Tuesday ahead of the Libertadores last-16 decider against Cruzeiro on Wednesday.

Head coach Leonardo Jardim will confirm his line-up at a 16:00 session at Ninho do Urubu, Brasília time.

On Sunday 16, Flamengo thrashed Mirassol 5-1 in the Brasileirão at Estádio Maião, with Jorge Carrascal scoring once and providing two assists. The Colombian dedicated his goal to his homeland after earthquakes that caused hundreds of deaths.

"We are going through a very difficult moment. We need the support of all Colombians. Strength to all of Colombia," he told FlamengoTV.

Elsewhere, veteran presenter Carlos Alberto de Nóbrega moved Flamengo supporters with emotional remarks about Zico, recalling cherished moments as a fan during an interview.
