Carrascal back from FIFA break, bolsters Jardim for Flamengo v Bragantino | OneFootball

Jorge Carrascal was available for Colombia during this FIFA international break

Flamengo continue preparing to face Red Bull Bragantino on Thursday (02), in the ninth round of the Brasileirão. Called up by Colombia for the FIFA international break, Jorge Carrascal has already returned to Rio de Janeiro and took part in Mengão's activities this Tuesday (31).

Leonardo Jardim, Flamengo's head coach, led the team's penultimate training session before the match against Bragantino this Tuesday (31), at 10 a.m. (Brasília time) at CT Ninho do Urubu. As a result, the Portuguese manager had Carrascal available, and the player trained normally with the Rubro-Negro squad.

Did Carrascal play for Colombia during this FIFA international break?

Colombia's first match of this FIFA international break was against Croatia last Thursday (26). On that occasion, the Europeans won 2-1, with Carrascal starting the match on the bench. In the 18th minute of the second half, the Flamengo midfielder came on, but could not prevent the Colombians' defeat.

Against France on Sunday (29), however, Carrascal was not used by Nestor Lorenzo and watched Colombia's 3-1 loss from the bench. After that, the player began making plans to return to Flamengo.

What is Flamengo's next match?

With Carrascal available, Flamengo continue preparing to face Red Bull Bragantino this Thursday (02), after the FIFA international break. The match kicks off at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at Estádio Cicero de Souza Marques, in the ninth round of the Brasileirão.

As tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details of the match between Flamengo and Bragantino through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, Globo (free-to-air) and Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the Brasileirão clash.
