Of the six Flamengo players called up, three took the field this Tuesday (09)

Finally, the World Cup Qualifiers have ended. This Tuesday (09), five matches stirred the last round, with four teams featuring players from Flamengo. Samuel Lino started in the high altitude of Bolivia but left early in the second half. Plata experienced a similar situation in Ecuador. Viña was the only one to play the full 90 minutes for Uruguay. And Carrascal wasn't even listed. Check out the summary.

WHAT WAS THE PLAYING TIME FOR FLAMENGO PLAYERS?

Bolivia 0x1 Brazil Samuel Lino: 60 minutes

Ecuador 1×0 Argentina Gonzalo Plata: 70 minutes

Chile 0x0 Uruguay* Viña: 90 minutes *Arrascaeta and Varela were released after last week's match against Peru

Venezuela 3×6 Colombia Carrascal: not listed

In the city of El Alto, over 4,000 meters above sea level, Samuel Lino felt the altitude. Showing signs of fatigue, the Flamengo forward couldn't stand out, left 15 minutes into the second half, and saw Brazil lose to Bolivia 1-0. It was a celebration for the home team, which finished seventh and goes to the playoffs.

HOW DID FLAMENGO'S FOREIGN PLAYERS PERFORM?

Matías Viña was the only one to play the full 90 minutes. Playing in Santiago, Chile, Uruguay ended with a 0-0 draw. The Celeste could afford to rest players, as they had already qualified. Thus, Arrascaeta and Varela were released and didn't travel to the Chilean capital. The defender, in particular, is suffering from lower back pain and is a concern for Flamengo.

In Guayaquil, Gonzalo Plata played 70 minutes in Ecuador's victory over Argentina. Having received a yellow card in the first half, the Flamengo forward was 'at risk'. After all, if he had received a second and consequently a red card, he would miss the World Cup debut.

Finally, Colombia dashed Venezuela's hopes of qualifying for the playoffs with a 6-3 away victory. However, Jorge Carrascal from Flamengo was left out of the match due to a technical decision. Thus, the midfielder stayed in the stands of the Estadio Monumental de Maturín.

END OF THE FIFA DATE, WHAT NOW?
