With an eye on the upcoming games of the season, against Vasco on Sunday and Cienciano next Wednesday, the Flamengo squad returned to training this afternoon at Gávea and focused heavily on technical aspects.

Coach Joel Santana divided the players into two groups. While the defenders and midfielders practiced positioning on crosses into the box, the rest of the squad trained extensively on finishing and crosses.

After the technical drills, Joel organized a quick practice match, which ended in a 0-0 draw. The coach fielded the following starting lineup: Bruno, Léo Moura, Fábio Luciano, Ronaldo Angelim and Juan; Jailton, Cristian, Ibson and Toró; Renato Augusto and Souza. The other team consisted of: Marcelo Lomba, Rodrigo Arroz, Leonardo and Thiago Sales; Luizinho, Airton, Kléberson, Marcinho and Egídio; Maxi and Diego Tardelli.
