With four points from two games, Flamengo faces Nacional on Thursday in Montevideo, hoping for another victory, which would bring some peace of mind in Group 4 and put the red-and-black team even closer to a spot in the Copa Libertadores Round of XNUMX. Coach Joel Santana is demanding a strong commitment from his team in the quest for victory.

"I want a very aggressive team in Uruguay. We're not going there just to defend ourselves, because we want to win. I want a team that defends strongly from the start of the game and knows how to take advantage of opportunities when they arise."

Joel did not reveal the team he will field against Nacional.

"I haven't watched Nacional's last few games yet. Only after I've seen them will I decide on the starting lineup. I can say that 80% of the team is already selected, but I'll discuss the rest with the coaching staff to see what's best."
