In the fourth round of the Libertadores group stage, Flamengo drew Talleres 2-2 on Wednesday night (4), at the Mario Alberto Kempes stadium, in Argentina. The red-black goals were scored by Arrascaeta and Pedro, both in the second half. With the result, Mais Querido remains as leader of Group H with 10 points and is on track to qualify for the round of XNUMX of the tournament.

The game
Flamengo started the match valuing possession in the attacking half. In the 12th minute, Coach Paulo Sousa had to make changes to his team due to an injury to defender Pablo. Andreas replaced him, and Arão was dropped back to defense.

Rubro-Negro kept the ball at their feet more, but struggled to make penetrative plays. In the 33rd minute, Arão attempted to clear the ball and sent it into his own net, opening the scoring for Talleres: 1-0.

In the 42nd minute, Flamengo equalized through Bruno Henrique, but the assistant referee ruled Gabi, who had participated in the play, offside. The first half ended with the home team ahead.

Early in the second half, Mengão leveled the score with a stunning goal! Isla found Arrascaeta at the edge of the box, and the Uruguayan unleashed a powerful shot into the goalkeeper's left corner: 1-1.

Talleres took the lead in the 11th minute with Santos: 2-1. The Mais Querido did not give in and tied the game again in the 23rd minute. Gabigol, as number 10, passed the ball to Pedro between the defenders, who controlled it, taking it away from his markers, and beat Herrera: 2-2.

In the final stretch, the red-black team tried some offensive plays in search of a comeback, but the match ended in a draw in Argentina.

Next appointment
Rubro-Negro returns to the field next Sunday (8) to play the classic against Botafogo, at 11 am, at Mané Garrincha, in Brasília. The clash is valid for the fifth round of the Brasileirão.
