Coluna do Fla gathered the main Flamengo news this Thursday (01). That’s because the sports media has been covering important developments involving the Rubro-Negro, whose schedule is still on hold due to the extended FIFA international break that began in September and ends in October.
Supreme Federal Court (STF) Justice Luiz Fux accepted Flamengo’s request on Wednesday (30) to join the case against the betting executive order. With the decision, the club will now act as amicus curiae, the so-called friend of the court, in the case.
Provisional Measure 1,394/2026, signed by President Lula on Friday (25), bans the offering and advertising of online betting in the country. Because of this, Flamengo is among the clubs most exposed, since Betano is its main sponsor.
In short, Vasco president Pedrinho said on Wednesday (30) that he will go to court to secure the Maracanã for the second leg against Boca Juniors (ARG). The match is worth a spot in the Copa Sudamericana final and is scheduled for October 20.
Meanwhile, the decision came after another refusal from the Maracanã Consortium, managed by Flamengo and Fluminense. The stadium operates under a concession from the Government of the State of Rio de Janeiro. According to the executive, the case should now go before the courts.
Fernando Sassaki, head of Flamengo’s Medical Department, detailed the fracture suffered by Arrascaeta while with the Uruguay national team. In an interview with ‘FlamengoTV,’ the club’s official YouTube channel, the doctor simply explained why surgery was necessary. He also gave an estimated recovery time for the midfielder.
The injury happened in Uruguay’s 4-1 win over South Korea. In the play, Arrascaeta lost his balance on his own, without contact, and fell with his left wrist braced against the ground. Subsequent imaging tests confirmed the fracture and the need for surgery.
