Flamengo and Vasco face off next Wednesday (21) at Maracanã

Flamengo and Vasco will face each other this Wednesday (21) at Maracanã, for the third round of the Campeonato Carioca. However, the Cruzmaltino will not have the presence of Vegetti, who bid farewell to his teammates this Monday (19).

Vegetti, who had been with Vasco since August 2023, was sold to Cerro Porteño (PAR). The athlete will thus sign a three-year contract with the Paraguayan team and will not face Flamengo.
