Flamengo take the field this Thursday (07) when they face Independiente Medellín (COL) in the fourth round of the Libertadores. For the match in Colombia, Leonardo Jardim outlined Flamengo’s lineup with Bruno Henrique in attack.
Rossi; Royal, Danilo, Léo Pereira and Alex Sandro; Evertton Araújo, Jorginho and Carrascal; Plata, Samuel Lino and Bruno Henrique.
It is worth noting that, in the 2026 Libertadores, Bruno Henrique has been starting in place of Pedro. The Brazilian with the most goal contributions in the history of the South American competition, number 27 has become something of a ‘trump card’ for the Rubro-Negro side in the tournament.
Yes! Flamengo have three confirmed absences for the match against Independiente Medellín. That is because Erick Pulgar is being treated for an injury to the acromioclavicular joint in his right shoulder. In addition, Lucas Paquetá is recovering from edema in his left thigh. Finally, Arrascaeta is in the post-surgery recovery process after an operation to repair a fracture of his right clavicle.
This Thursday (07), Flamengo face Independiente Medellín in the fourth round of the South American competition’s group stage. The match will take place at Estádio El Atanasio, in Colombia, starting at 9:30 PM (Brasília time).
It is worth noting that the Flamengo vs Independiente Medellín match will be broadcast live on ESPN, on pay TV, as well as on Disney+ Premium via streaming. However, Coluna do Fla will keep track of all the latest information on the Rubro-Negro side on the website, social media, and the YouTube channel.
