After the conclusion of the 22nd round of the Brasileirão this Sunday (31), the Brazilian football calendar has paused due to the FIFA Date, which runs from September 1st to 9th. The Flamengo, in turn, will only return to the field on the 14th. Taking advantage of the period without matches, the club has released the schedule for the coming days.
Right after the 1-1 draw with Grêmio at Maracanã, Flamengo granted four days off to the squad. According to the club's information, the team will reconvene on Friday (06) at 3:30 PM (Brasília time) at Ninho do Urubu. The coaching staff, led by Filipe Luís, opted for this rest period to focus on the players' physical recovery.
On Saturday (7) and Sunday (8), Filipe Luís will lead two morning training sessions, continuing the team's preparation during the calendar break. The club aims to maintain the squad's competitive rhythm, adjust tactical details, and ensure good physical condition before returning to the field.
In total, Flamengo will be without six players during the FIFA Date. This is because Matías Viña, Arrascaeta, and Varela were called up by Uruguay, while Plata will represent Ecuador. Additionally, Carrascal will play for Colombia and Samuel Lino will serve the Brazilian National Team.
Flamengo returns to the field on Sunday, September 14th, to face Juventude at Alfredo Jaconi Stadium in Caxias do Sul. Thus, the match, valid for the 23rd round of the Brazilian Championship, will start at 4 PM (Brasília time). The Rio de Janeiro team will seek an away victory to stay firmly in the lead of the competition.
