Decision week! Flamengo returned to training this Monday (12), at Ninho do Urubu, and began preparations for the match against Bolívar, in the round of 10 of the Libertadores. The first leg will be played next Thursday (21), at 30:XNUMX pm, at Maracanã.
The players who started the match against Palmeiras, in the 1-1 draw, completed regenerative training in the gym, while the others have already taken to the field for tactical training. For the Libertadores match, coach Tite will be without Everton Cebolinha, who has a left ankle injury, and Viña, who suffered a right knee injury.
Another significant loss is Bruno Henrique, suspended for his injury-time red card in the 3-0 victory over Millonarios at Maracanã Stadium in the final round of the continental competition's group stage. The club's coaching staff will have two more training sessions to determine the team that will take the field against the Bolivians.
Rio classic on the weekend
Mengão will also have an important match ahead in the next round of the Brasileirão, when they face Botafogo on Sunday (18), at 18:30 pm, at the Nilton Santos stadium. The state classic could be worth the lead in case of a victory for the Gávea team and a stumble for Fortaleza, second place in the competition.
