Thiago Silva rested, misses Fluminense’s Copa do Brasil clash with Sport

Fluminense's defender and captain, Thiago Silva, will not face Sport next Wednesday (01), in Recife, for the Brasileirão. According to journalist Victor Lessa, the player will undergo tests on Monday, and, even if no injury is detected, the technical committee has chosen to preserve him.

Thiago Silva left the last game against Botafogo as a precaution. Since yesterday, as soon as he got home, the defender started the recovery work, following a prevention protocol to ensure his full performance in the upcoming matches.

The absence of the captain will be a challenge for the tricolor defense, which will need to find alternatives to maintain stability in the defense during the away game.
