Marcelo Carné, Rafael Galhardo, Marlon, Henrique, and Jorbison; Luiz Antônio, João Vitor, Vitor Saba, and Guilherme; Dudu and Vinícius Paquetá. This is Flamengo's likely starting lineup for its return to the U-20 Rio de Janeiro State Championship on Saturday in Conselheiro Galvão. The young Flamengo players face Madureira away from home, and coach Paulo Henrique is expected to have the best players available.
If the coach has lost Lenon, Camacho and Diego Maurício, who have been used regularly in the professional team, he should count on, for example, full-back Rafael Galhardo, who despite having been doing muscle strengthening work in recent days with some younger athletes, will probably play.
"I'm going down to play with the youth team on Saturday. We're doing some physical strengthening work, and that's important for us to be in good shape when we return. But I'm going to play this game, which is important for us at the youth level," said Galhardo.
Another player who is also expected to play is Saba, who has been undergoing the same training process during the week in Gávea.
