Filipe Luís names Jorginho’s replacement for Flamengo v Estudiantes | OneFootball

Who is Jorginho's replacement in the Flamengo vs Estudiantes (ARG) game?

Flamengo will be without Jorginho in the first match against Estudiantes (ARG), for the first leg of the quarterfinals. In place of the Italo-Brazilian, coach Filipe Luís has lined up the Uruguayan De La Cruz.

Jorginho was doubtful until hours before the ball rolled for Flamengo vs Estudiantes, as he is in the transition phase from a thigh discomfort. After being re-evaluated this Thursday (18), the Rubro-Negro decided not to include the player for the first leg, which takes place at Maracanã.

WILL DE LA CRUZ BE JORGINHO'S SUBSTITUTE IN THE FLAMENGO VS ESTUDIANTES GAME?

Yes! Unlike what happened against Juventude, Filipe Luís chose Allan to be Jorginho's replacement. However, this Thursday (18), the coach placed De La Cruz to perform the Italo-Brazilian's role alongside Saúl Ñíguez.

DOES FLAMENGO HAVE MORE CHANGES FOR THE GAME AGAINST ESTUDIANTES?

Flamengo has two changes in the team compared to the last game. This is because Varela, who has recovered from pubalgia, takes the place of Emerson Royal. Meanwhile, Léo Ortiz, who served an automatic suspension last Sunday (14) in the Brasileirão, returns to the team in place of Danilo.
