STJD sets hearing to decide Carrascal's place in Flamengo's next matches

What could happen to Jorge Carrascal in Flamengo’s upcoming matches?

The Superior Court of Sports Justice set aside Wednesday (15) to decide Jorge Carrascal’s situation for Flamengo’s upcoming matches in the Brasileirão. Depending on the punishment, the Colombian could be unavailable for the Rubro-Negro for four more matches.

Carrascal will be tried for the red card he received against Corinthians in the Brazilian Super Cup. On that occasion, the midfielder was shown a red card after striking Breno Bidon in the face with his hand.

At the moment, Carrascal’s suspension is four matches, but the player is still playing because Flamengo obtained a stay of suspension. Therefore, if the STJD makes a final decision and chooses to apply the punishment, the Colombian will have to serve it in Brasileirão matches.

WILL CARRASCAL MISS FLAMENGO’S NEXT BRASILEIRÃO MATCH?

It is important to note that Carrascal is already out of the match against Bahia in the next Brasileirão round. That is because, in the derby against Fluminense on Sunday (12), the player made a scissor tackle on Guga in the final minutes and was sent off. So, if he receives the maximum punishment from the STJD, he will be absent for five matches.

HOW IS FLAMENGO PREPARING FOR THE TEAM’S NEXT MATCHES THIS SEASON?

After the derby win over Fluminense, the Flamengo squad had Monday (13) off. However, this Tuesday (14), Leonardo Jardim begins preparations focused on the team’s next commitments of the season.

On Thursday (16), Flamengo host Independiente Medellín (COL) in the second round of the Libertadores. In short, the ball starts rolling at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at the Maracanã. As usual, Coluna do Fla TV will cover all the details of the match on YouTube, as well as on its website and social media.
