Flamengo's squad returned to training this Thursday afternoon at Granja Comary in Teresópolis. In another collective training session, coach Andrade finalized the team's details for Sunday's decisive match against Grêmio at Maracanã, in the final round of the Brazilian Championship.
The red-and-black coach opted to keep Airton in midfield and fielded David alongside Ronaldo Angelim in defense. Zé Roberto and Petkovic participated as normal in the training session and are guaranteed to play against the Rio Grande do Sul team. The only change Andrade made during the training session was swapping Toró for Everton, giving the red-and-black team a more attacking presence.
The starters performed well, winning the training session 1-0, with Everton scoring. Andrade fielded the main squad: Bruno, Léo Moura, David, Ronaldo Angelim, and Juan; Aírton, Toró (Everton), Willians, and Petkovic; Zé Roberto and Adriano.
Andrade said after training that he has not yet decided which team will take to the field this weekend.
"I tested a few options and I'll only announce the official lineup on Sunday. I don't know how Grêmio will play yet, so I'll wait a little longer. But we'll continue with the same drive and determination. I'm sure we're ready to put on a good performance."
