In Flamengo’s defeat to Lanús (ARG) in the Recopa, Ayrton Lucas faced heavy criticism. That’s because the fullback made a poor back pass to Rossi, which resulted in a goal for the Argentine team. The number 6 acknowledged his mistake and apologized to the Nation after the Carioca title, won on Sunday (08).

— No one makes mistakes on purpose. It’s very hard because of some things we go through, especially for me. It’s very difficult when you lose a title because of a mistake, it hurts even more. It’s hard to move on, but now I’m at peace — Ayrton Lucas began.
— I hope, from now on, to perform better to help this club that I love. I hope that the fans can forgive me for this mistake, that they can support me from now on. I will always try to give my best — added Flamengo’s left back.
After the Recopa, some fans ‘invaded’ Ayrton Lucas’s social media to criticize the player. So, the fullback decided to delete his Instagram page. After the match against Lanús, the number 6 didn’t play anymore, remaining on the bench during the 8-0 rout over Madureira and in the Carioca final against Fluminense.
After winning the Carioca title, the new Flamengo coach, Leonardo Jardim, was emphatic: he will have to rotate the squad due to the packed Brazilian football calendar. Since Alex Sandro played the last two matches, Ayrton Lucas is hoping to face Cruzeiro this Wednesday (11), in the Brasileirão.
If Mengão is on the field, there’s full coverage from Coluna do Fla. The ball starts rolling at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã, for the fifth round. In addition, Globo, on free-to-air TV, will broadcast the match to most of Brazil. Finally, GETV (YouTube) and Premiere (pay-per-view) will also show the match.
