The Flamengo squad is filled with good players, and one of them in particular caught the attention of Ewerton from Pyramids (EGI). In an interview with Coluna do Fla, the Brazilian expressed being ‘astonished’ by the quality of Jorge Carrascal.

“Individually, the one who caught my attention the most was Carrascal. He controlled every ball, turned, and didn't lose a single ball. I think he was the player I liked the most during the match,” said Ewerton in a chat with the Coluna do Fla team.

It's important to note that Ewerton started the game between Flamengo and Pyramids on the bench and came on in the second half. Thus, the forward was able to observe Carrascal's style of play both on and off the field throughout the match.

HOW IS CARRASCAL'S YEAR AT FLAMENGO GOING?

Carrascal was one of Flamengo's dream signings in the last transfer window. Even though he was treated as a priority, the Colombian was the last to arrive due to a negotiation hurdle with Dynamo Moscow (RUS).

With everything resolved, Carrascal arrived with the ‘mission’ of being Arrascaeta's replacement. However, over time, Filipe Luís placed the athlete to play alongside the number 10 of Mengão in the starting lineup. So far, the Colombian has been improving and is a key player in the red-black team.

WHAT IS FLAMENGO'S NEXT MATCH IN THE WORLD CUP?

With Carrascal available, Flamengo faces PSG (FRA) in the World Cup final. In summary, the match kicks off at 2 PM (Brasília time) this Wednesday (17th) in Doha, Qatar. Thus, Coluna do Fla TV shows the details of the match with ‘in loco’ coverage by Simon Lédo. Finally, Globo (open channel), SporTV (closed), CazéTV, and GETV (YouTube) broadcast the duel.
