Flamengo's next match in the Brasileirão will be against Sport on Saturday (01), for the 31st round. However, before the duel, the Pernambuco team made a move and dismissed coach Daniel Paulista.
Through an official statement, Sport announced the dismissal of Daniel Paulista. The departure occurred after a conversation between the management and the coach on Tuesday (28). After the coach stated he would not stay for the next season, the team released the professional.
It is important to note that even after the dismissal, Daniel Paulista and the entire coaching staff will receive their salaries for the month of November. Thus, Sport faced a setback in their preparation for the game against Flamengo.
After announcing Daniel Paulista's departure, Sport revealed that the team will be led by César Lucena, the club's permanent assistant. This means the professional is expected to take charge of the team until the end of the season.
The match between Flamengo and Sport takes place at 9 PM (Brasília time) this Saturday (01), at Maracanã. In this match, Mengão will seek victory to stay in the race for the Brasileirão title. Before that, however, Fla will decide their fate in the Libertadores of America.
On Wednesday (29), Flamengo faces Racing (ARG) in the quest to ‘secure a spot’ in the Libertadores final. The match kicks off at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at El Cilindro, in Argentina.
Flamengo has the advantage of a draw, as they defeated their rival 1-0 at Maracanã. Coluna do Fla, as usual, provides detailed coverage with Leo José and Simon Lédo reporting ‘on-site’ on YouTube, as well as on their website and social media.
