After the draw with Cruzeiro in the Brasileirão, Flamengo returned this Monday (29), at Ninho do Urubu, and began preparations for the classic against Fluminense, valid for the second leg of the round of 1 of the Copa do Brasil. The duel between the red-blacks and the tricolors takes place next Thursday (20), at XNUMX pm, at Maracanã.

Coach Jorge Sampaoli led a tactical training session ahead of the derby. The Argentine will have two more training sessions to prepare the team. It's worth noting that the first game ended in a 0-0 draw. The winning team will qualify for the quarterfinals of the national competition.

In the early afternoon, the CRF reported on social media that the athlete Marinho was fined, removed from the squad for the last game and will train in an alternative period for an indefinite period.
