Flamengo drew 1-1 with Estudiantes de La Plata (ARG) last Wednesday (29), in the third round of the Libertadores. On the morning of this Thursday (30), the Rubro-Negro delegation landed in Rio de Janeiro.
According to information released by Flamengo, the Rubro-Negro delegation landed in Rio de Janeiro at around 6:25 a.m. (Brasília time) this Thursday (30). Arrascaeta, who fractured his right collarbone, returned to the Marvelous City with the rest of the squad.
It is worth noting that Flamengo’s squad has the day off this Thursday (30). However, Arrascaeta will undergo surgery to repair the fracture in his right collarbone. Fla’s Head of Medical Department, Fernando Sassaki, will oversee the procedure.
Without Arrascaeta, the Flamengo squad begins preparations for the match against Vasco on the morning of this Friday (01). Thus, at Ninho do Urubu, Leonardo Jardim starts Flamengo’s work focused on Sunday’s (03) derby.
After drawing in the Copa Libertadores, Flamengo now turns its attention to the Brazilian Championship. That is because on Sunday (03), the Rubro-Negro faces Vasco at the Maracanã. In short, the derby kicks off at 4 p.m. (Brasília time), valid for the 14th round of the Brasileirão.
