Flamengo's squad returned to training this Tuesday morning in Gávea. Coach Caio Júnior began preparing the team that will face Goiás on Sunday at Maracanã Stadium, in a match valid for the 37th round of the Brazilian Championship.

In today's tactical training session, the coach changed the team's structure, switching from a 3-5-2 to a 4-4-2. With Fábio Luciano suspended, Jailton formed the defense with Ronaldo Angelim. In midfield, the new additions were Toró and Everton. The starting lineup trained with: Bruno; Léo Moura (Luizinho), Jailton, Ronaldo Angelim, and Juan; Toró, Kleberson, Ibson, and Everton; Marcelinho Paraíba and Obina.

During training, full-back Léo Moura felt pain in his right knee and had to be replaced by Luizinho. The number 2 will be re-evaluated during the week. Midfielder Airton, who was substituted in the first half of the match against Cruzeiro due to knee pain, did physical training on the Gávea field.
