Flamengo and Barcelona (ESP) will take the field next Saturday (23) in pursuit of the Under-20 Club World Cup title. In preparation for the match, the Spanish team, led by Juliano Belletti, is training at Fluminense's training center.
The Barcelona delegation left Spain last Monday (18), but due to a layover in Paris, the squad only arrived in Rio de Janeiro on Tuesday night (19). This Wednesday (20), the Spanish team officially began their stay in the ‘Marvelous City’.
In addition to training at Fluminense's training center before the final, Barcelona has also scheduled some activities for the players. Besides the planned activities, the Spanish team will use their free time to tour Rio de Janeiro. Christ the Redeemer and the beaches, for example, are part of the itinerary.
The Flamengo squad began their preparations for the game on Monday (18) at the Ninho do Urubu training center. The activities led by Bruno Pivetti will continue until Friday (22). This Thursday (19), the press will be able to observe the first movements of the athletes before the exercises begin.
For the match, the under-20 squad will have important reinforcements. This is because players like Matheus Gonçalves, Lorran, Joshua, Iago, and João Victor, who already play among the professionals, will be available.
The match between Flamengo and Barcelona will take place at 4:30 PM (Brasília time) this Saturday (23), at Maracanã. As usual, Coluna do Fla TV will cover all the details of the clash on social media and YouTube.
