Missing Flamengo, fans? The absence of Mengão can be partially alleviated this Saturday (06), when the U-20 world champion takes the field to face Vasco, in the sixth round of the Carioca Championship for the category. The match kicks off at 9:30 AM (Brasília time), at Gávea, with broadcast by FlamengoTV.
For the game, Flamengo will have many changes compared to the team that defeated Barcelona (ESP) two weeks ago. After all, the starting defensive duo, Iago and João Victor, is with the Brazilian U-20 National Team. Additionally, the Rubro-Negro has transferred four players from the world champion team: goalkeeper Lucas Furtado, midfielders Matheus Goncalves and Lorran, and forward Shola.
On the other hand, Flamengo will have the reinforcement of one of the heroes of the world title, goalkeeper Léo Nanneti. Last week, the 18-year-old completed training with the main Brazilian National Team at Granja Comary and received praise even from the four-time champion Cláudio Taffarel. After the experience, the goalkeeper is back with Mengão.
Flamengo is on a roll this season. After the world title, the Garotos do Ninho delivered a resounding 4-0 victory over Fluminense, away from home, last Saturday (30). Guilherme (three times) and Joshua scored on the occasion. With the result, Mengão jumped to second place, with ten points in four games. Vasco leads the Carioca, with 12 points in five matches.
The São Januário team also comes from a victory in the last round, when they beat Boavista, 2-1, at home. Like Flamengo, Vasco will also have an absence due to the Brazilian U-20 National Team: Leandrinho. The green and yellow team is in Atibaia-SP until Tuesday (09), preparing for the World Cup of the category.
As soon as the match ends at Gávea, Coluna do Fla will provide an article with the game summary. Therefore, stay tuned to the website, social media, and YouTube to know everything about the match of Flamengo, the current U-20 world football champion.
