After a week of training at Granja Comary, in Teresópolis, Flamengo came down from the mountains and trained today (23/11) in the afternoon at CT Ninho do Urubu. Joel Santana once again organized a collective to prepare the team for Sunday's game (25/11), against Atlético-PR, at Maracanã.

After starting Roger and Obina in yesterday afternoon's training session, Joel began today's training session with Argentine Maxi among the starters. The coach fielded Jaiton, Cristian, Ibson, and Renato Augusto in midfield.

The team showed good momentum, and within 20 minutes, they were winning the match with goals from Juan and Souza. Halfway through the session, Joel made another change, taking off Jailton and Maxi for Roger and Obina. The team didn't perform as well, and the reserves scored with a beautiful goal from Maxi.

After the training session, Joel practiced crossing with the squad's full-backs and midfielder Léo Medeiros.
