Marcelino Moreno and Rodrigo Castillo Race Against Time to Play Against Flamengo


Flamengo takes the field this Thursday (19) to face Lanús (ARG) in the first leg of the Recopa Sudamericana. Before that, the Argentine team is racing against time to count on two starters who are currently doubtful.

Marcelino Moreno is dealing with metatarsalgia in his left foot, and the medical department is working for the athlete to play through the pain. Meanwhile, Rodrigo Castillo's situation is more complex due to a muscle edema in the quadriceps of his left leg.
