The Kings League has increasingly attracted players who have already been involved in professional football. As a result, Lucas Paquetá said he hopes to play in the competition one day. The Flamengo midfielder made the statement during a league broadcast.
— I want to play in the Kings League one day. I think the format is really cool, I follow it all the time. At first it was hard to understand, but nowadays, for people who don’t understand anything about it, I can even explain it -, Paquetá said during a live stream with streamer Gaulês.
The Kings League is a Fut 7 format created by former player Gerard Piqué. Because of that, the league has become popular among professional athletes. Neymar, Gabigol, and Diego Ribas are some of the well-known names who take part in the tournament.
A match in the competition involves cards, dice, and a very different dynamic from the conventional game. There is, for example, the chance for a team to draw a double-goal card, which lasts four minutes and allows the team to double its goals.
With Paquetá focused on the pitch, Flamengo returns to action this Sunday (19) to face Bahia. The match kicks off at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at the Maracanã, in the 12th round of the Brasileirão.
Thus, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details of the clash between Flamengo and Bahia through YouTube, the website, and social media. The match broadcast itself, however, will be on Premiere.
