Recovered from injury, forward Bruno Henrique trained normally and will continue with the delegation to Ecuador. He spoke about his return to the team for this crucial match:

"I'm very happy to be back after 15 days recovering from a knee injury. I'm very confident about this return and focused on playing well again. It's always good to be available to the coach, regardless of whether I start or not. The important thing is for all of us to be focused on these two games we have in Ecuador. Bringing these two victories to Rio will be crucial for Flamengo in the Libertadores final," said the player.

After the match, the red-black delegation will continue on Ecuadorian territory for the game against Barcelona de Guayaquil next Tuesday (22), at 19:15 pm, at the Monumental de Barcelona stadium.
