Flamengo and Barcelona (ESP) face each other in the final of the Under-20 World Cup this Saturday (23), at Maracanã, from 16:30 (Brasília time). For the intercontinental match, the Spanish team has already defined the lineup.
Éder Aller, Xavi Espart, Landry Farre, Cuenca, Jan Virgili, Brian Fariñas, Oscar Gistau, Quim Casanova, Juan Hernandez, Álvaro Cortes Moyano, Pedro Rodríguez.
Even with the confirmed lineup, it's worth noting that Barcelona takes to the field with five important absences: Kochen, Torrents, Dro, Tony, and Guille Fernandez were not related to the decision against Flamengo. Still, coach Belletti has the rest of the squad at his disposal and defined the 11 starters without surprises.
Champion of the three main sub-19 tournaments in Europe (Spanish Championship, King's Cup, and Youth League), Barcelona is seeking an unprecedented feat. This is because the Catalan team has never won the Under-20 World Cup title.
The ball rolls for Flamengo and Barcelona at 16:30 (Brasília time) this Saturday (23), at Maracanã. The Under-20 World Cup final pits two of the greatest powers in world football against each other in the formation and revelation of young talents.
With a full Maracanã, the red-black crowd promises intense support from the initial whistle to the end of the duel. As usual, Coluna do Fla follows everything closely, with complete coverage, real-time updates, and all the behind-the-scenes of the match on digital platforms.
