Concern for Flamengo fans!

Gerson felt a knee injury and had to be replaced by Danilo, this Sunday (25), in the 2 x 0 victory, against Palmeiras, for the 10th round of the Brasileirão.

The player left the Allianz Parque field, feeling a lot of pain, 13 minutes into the second half, and applied an ice pack as soon as he sat on the bench.

The captain's departure raises an alert in Fla, amid the decision in the Libertadores next Wednesday (28).

If they beat Táchira, the spot is well underway, but in case of a draw, Fla needs to hope that LDU does not beat Central Córdoba, in Quito.

If LDU wins, Fla will be overtaken by the Ecuadorians and will be out of the round of 16.

The expectation of the Rubro-Negro is for a full house against Deportivo Táchira, with the projection of more than 63 thousand fans attending the Maracanã, pushing the team in search of qualification to the round of 16.
