The Brazil national team called up four Flamengo players for the World Cup in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. As a result, Mengo reached 39 players called up by Brazil in history to play in the World Cup. Therefore, the Most Beloved now stands alone in third place among the clubs that have supplied the most players to the Seleção in the tournament.
This is because the rivalry between Vasco and Flamengo even extended to World Cup call-ups. The Rio clubs were tied at 35 players called up for the World Cup in history. Lucas Paquetá, Alex Sandro, Danilo, and Léo Pereira broke the tie.
In addition, the Rubro-Negro matched its own record for players called up in a single World Cup edition after 68 years. In the 1958 World Cup, four Flamengo representatives were called up by coach Vicente Feola: midfielder Moacir and forwards Zagallo, Joel, and Dida.
With national team players available, the match between Flamengo and Estudiantes takes place this Wednesday (20), in the fifth round of Group A of the Libertadores group stage. The ball starts rolling at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at the Maracanã.
Thus, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details of the match between Flamengo and Estudiantes through YouTube, the website, and social media. The broadcast of the match, however, will be on Globo (free-to-air TV), GE TV (Globoplay), and Paramount+ (streaming).
