Bruno Henrique receives third yellow, suspended for Botafogo clash | OneFootball

Flamengo lost 2-1 to Cruzeiro on Saturday, and Bruno Henrique will miss the next match against Botafogo after collecting his third yellow card.

According to Coluna Do Fla, the forward started on the bench, came on in the second half and was cautioned for a foul on Fagner, triggering an automatic ban.

Leonardo Jardim has recently used Bruno Henrique either through the middle or off the left.

For the central role, Pedro has been Jardim’s main pick. The number nine has no restrictions for the game and should start again.

On the left, Samuel Lino has been the leading option under Jardim. The number 16 is also available to face Botafogo.

The defeat leaves Flamengo on 45 points, three behind Palmeiras. The São Paulo side play Vasco on Sunday and could move six points clear with a game more.
