Paquetá, Lino and 3 more: 5 Flamengo worries v Mirassol | OneFootball

Pulgar, Cebolinha, Paquetá, Luiz Araújo, and Samuel Lino are at risk of missing Flamengo’s next Brasileirão match

Flamengo take the field this Wednesday (02) when they face Mirassol in a postponed match from the fourth round of the Brasileirão. With an eye on the team’s next league fixture, Leonardo Jardim is “on alert” over the situation of the five players who are one booking away from suspension.

Which Flamengo players are one booking away from suspension?

Erick Pulgar, Everton Cebolinha, Lucas Paquetá, Luiz Araújo, and Samuel Lino have each accumulated two yellow cards in the Brasileirão. That means just one more booking will result in an automatic suspension for the next match. As a result, Leonardo Jardim needs to balance risk and necessity when picking the team for the clash.

However, the five players at risk are important pieces in different areas of the squad. Therefore, Leonardo Jardim faces a dilemma between resting them and keeping his strongest lineup on the field.
