OR Flamengo Live busy days in the middle of the elimination of the Copa do Brasil, disputes for the first places of the Brazilian Championship and the next phase of the Libertadores. The problems continue and Rogério Ceni’s technical committee has to plan the sequence of matches.
After the fall in the round of 16 on Wednesday, in Morumbi, the group prepares to face Coritiba, this Saturday, for the 22nd match of Brasileirão. But once on Sunday, the Rossoneri delegation leaves for Argentina to face Racing in the round of continental competition on Tuesday.
With the decisive confrontation in Argentina, and given the importance of the Libertadores for the club’s coffers, it is possible that Rogério Ceni will save some athletes this Saturday. Defenders Gustavo Henrique and Natan have certain absences due to being sanctioned for the third yellow card. Gabigol, Pedro, Rodrigo Caio and Thiago Maia are recovering from injuries and are also out.
Filipe Luís and Diego Ribas, who are recovering from muscle injuries, have already started the transition to the field. There is the possibility that they are related to the game, but in this case they would be options in the substitute bench.
Everton Ribeiro, who played 90 minutes for the Brazilian team against Uruguay on Tuesday and 45 minutes against São Paulo on Wednesday, must be forgiven against Coritiba.
The Maracana game could be an opportunity for Ceni to put some youngsters on the field. Left-back Ramón, midfielder Joao Gomes, midfielder Pepe and attacker Lázaro can win more opportunities.
Flamengo will have a rare bye week after the first leg against Racing, as Brasileirão’s matchday 23 match against Grêmio was postponed.
Ceni will have seven days to prepare the team for the return of the Libertadores the other Tuesday, in Maracaná.
