Samuel Lino, Luiz Araújo or Arrascaeta: Flamengo’s top dribbler

Gambar artikel:Samuel Lino, Luiz Araújo or Arrascaeta: Flamengo’s top dribbler

In just five games, Samuel Lino has shown potential to reach Arrascaeta and Luiz Araújo in the number of dribbles


Flamengo has a talented squad and, therefore, coach Filipe Luís has good dribblers at his disposal, since the team has an average of 14 dribbles per game. However, three players stand out from the others in this aspect, while others are more discreet.

The main dribblers of Flamengo are the Uruguayan star Arrascaeta and Luiz Araújo. This is because both are tied with 52 dribbles in the season. The data was collected from the Sofascore website and only includes the 50 games played by Flamengo in the season so far.

And the others?

  • Arrascaeta: 52;
  • Luiz Araújo: 52;
  • Bruno Henrique: 46;
  • Matheus Gonçalves: 43;
  • Gonzalo Plata: 35;
  • Michael: 34;
  • Cebolinha: 26;
  • Samuel Lino: 24;
  • Alex Sandro: 20;
  • De La Cruz: 20;
  • Varela: 19;
  • Léo Ortiz: 11;
  • Erick Pulgar: 9;
  • Pedro: 6;
  • Allan: 7;
  • Léo Pereira: 3;
  • Jorginho: 3.

However, it's worth remembering that striker Samuel Lino, former Atlético de Madrid (ESP), has only played five games with the Sacred Mantle and has almost half of what the main dribblers of Flamengo have. Therefore, the athlete has an average of at least four dribbles per game so far.

Who is the player who dribbles the most in Brazil?

As a curiosity, Erick Pulga is the player in the Brazilian football elite who completes the most dribbles. This is because the Bahia striker, trained by Rogério Ceni, has successfully completed 99 dribbles so far, almost double that of Arrascaeta and Luiz Araújo.

What's Flamengo's next game?

With the dribblers at his disposal, Filipe Luís' team returns to the field this Sunday (17) against Internacional, in the 20th round of the Brazilian Championship. The game will be played at the Maracanã, starting at 6:30 PM (Brasília time) with transmission on Premiere, pay-per-view. However, Coluna do Fla will provide complete coverage before and after the game.
