Recopa: Arrascaeta and Bruno Henrique chase 20th trophy with Flamengo | OneFootball

Arrascaeta and Bruno Henrique Aim for a Second Recopa Title

Champions of practically everything at Flamengo, Arrascaeta and Bruno Henrique could reach a historic milestone: 20 titles with the club. This record could be achieved this Thursday (26th), against Lanús (ARG), in the Recopa Sudamericana.

Signed at the beginning of 2019, Arrascaeta and Bruno Henrique have already won one Recopa, in 2020. In addition, the idols have claimed 16 other trophies wearing the Sacred Mantle. Check out below the complete list of titles won by the players for Flamengo.

WHAT ARE ARRASCAETA AND BRUNO HENRIQUE'S TITLES WITH FLAMENGO?

WILL ARRASCAETA AND BRUNO HENRIQUE FACE LANÚS?

Of the two Flamengo idols, Arrascaeta is more likely to start. That’s because the Uruguayan played in the first leg and is one of the main players in Filipe Luís’ system. Meanwhile, Bruno Henrique should be on the bench, after suffering from pubic pain and missing the team’s match on Sunday (22nd) against Madureira.

WHAT DOES FLAMENGO NEED TO WIN THE RECOPA?

Since they lost the first leg 1-0, Flamengo must win at all costs this Thursday (26th) to claim the Recopa. A win by two goals secures the trophy for Mengão. A victory by just one goal forces extra time. Lanús, of course, only needs a draw or a win.

Flamengo will be playing their third Recopa, with a 50% record so far. In two finals against Del Valle (EQU), the Most Beloved were champions in 2020 and defeated in 2023. Lanús, meanwhile, has participated once, losing the final to Atlético-MG in 2014.

WHERE TO WATCH FLAMENGO VS LANÚS IN THE RECOPA, AFTER ALL?

So, the ball gets rolling for Flamengo and Lanús at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at Maracanã. Coluna do Fla will be at the stadium bringing all the information. Additionally, ESPN (cable channel) and Disney Premium (streaming) will broadcast the Recopa, which could further cement the idol status of Arrascaeta and Bruno Henrique.
