What happened to Zalaka, player of Pyramids (EGI)?


Flamengo defeated Pyramids (EGI) 2-0 this Saturday (13), in the semifinals of the Intercontinental Clubs. Besides the red-black triumph, another scene caught the attention of the fans in the final minutes of the match.

This is because Zalaka, the midfielder of Pyramids (EGI), threw a 'tantrum' when leaving the field amid Flamengo's victory. The player was upset with the refereeing after receiving a yellow card for complaining. On the occasion, the athlete threw himself inside the area asking for a penalty after a clash with Erick Pulgar.

How was the Flamengo vs Pyramids match?

Flamengo controlled much of the game in the first half, creating several dangerous opportunities. Not surprisingly, at 23 minutes, Léo Pereira opened the scoring for the Red-Black. After a free-kick by Arrascaeta, the defender rose alone and headed the ball into the back of the Pyramids' net.

In the second half, despite initial pressure from Pyramids, Flamengo was not in danger. At six minutes, in a play similar to the first goal, Danilo scored the second goal for Mengão in the match, after another free-kick by Arrascaeta.

What is Flamengo's next match?

With the victory this Saturday (13), Flamengo secured a spot in the Intercontinental final. Thus, Filipe Luís's team returns to the field on Wednesday (17) to face PSG (FRA), at 2 PM (Brasília time), at Al Rayyan Stadium, in Doha, Qatar.

As tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details about the match, through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, Globo (open channel), GE TV (YouTube) and Cazé TV (YouTube) will broadcast the Flamengo vs PSG match.
