The countdown is on! This Wednesday (08), Flamengo visit Cusco (PER) at Estadio Inca Garcilaso de la Vega for the first round of the Libertadores group stage. For the away match, coach Leonardo Jardim is dealing with five absences.
Alex Sandro suffered a muscle injury in the back of his right thigh, while Pulgar had an issue with the acromioclavicular joint in his right shoulder. As a result, both are out. In addition, Everton Cebolinha is still being treated for a rib fracture.
Meanwhile, Saúl is still recovering after surgery on his left heel. Finally, Jorginho suffered a calf muscle injury. Therefore, Leonardo Jardim will have to ‘pull rabbits out of the hat’ in Flamengo’s debut as they chase their fifth Libertadores title.
Flamengo and Cusco face off at 9:30 PM (Brasília time) this Wednesday (08) at Estadio Inca Garcilaso de la Vega. The venue is located more than 3,350 meters above sea level.
As usual, Coluna do Fla TV brings all the details of the match valid for the first round of the Libertadores group stage through YouTube, as well as the website and social media. Finally, Rede Globo (free-to-air TV), Paramount (streaming), and GETV (YouTube) will broadcast the match.
