After the victory over Corinthians last Sunday, Flamengo returned on Monday morning (22), at Ninho do Urubu, and began preparations for the match against Ñublense, which will be played this Wednesday (24), at 21:30 pm, at the Municipal de Concepción stadium, in Chile. The match is valid for the fourth round of Group A of the Conmebol Libertadores.

The starters who started the match against Corinthians did some recovery work in the gym, while the rest took to the field for a tactical exercise led by coach Jorge Sampaoli. In the afternoon, the red-and-black delegation continued their journey to Chile.

Uruguayan Arrascaeta, who felt discomfort in his right thigh during warm-ups before the match against São Paulo, traveled with the squad as usual and is available for the match, as is Léo Pereira, who scored the winning goal. It's worth noting that the Flamengo defender had to finish the match struggling because Mengão had already made their substitutions.
