De La Cruz is missing from the Flamengo team as he suffered an injury to his right thigh
Flamengo enters the field this Saturday (26) to face Juventude, in the 31st round of the Brasileirão. In the match, coach Filipe Luís will not be able to count on De La Cruz, who suffered a thigh injury and is out of Rubro-Negro’s next games. Given this situation, Evertton Araújo is the most likely to take over the Uruguayan’s place.

No entanto, no treino da sexta-feira (25), o técnico rubro-negro optou por escalar o cria do Flamengo entre os titulares. The Argentine appeared as an option on the reserve bench.

In addition to Evertton Araújo, Filipe Luís also made other changes to the Flamengo team. In short, on the left flank, Ayrton Lucas replaced Alex Sandro, who is still recovering from muscle discomfort. In attack, Michael takes the place of Bruno Henrique, who will serve an automatic suspension for the third yellow card.
