Flamengo lineup still has doubts on the last day of training
The Flamengo squad trains this Saturday morning (02) to conclude preparation focused on the first game of the Copa do Brasil final, against Atlético-MG. Filipe Luís uses the latest activity at CT to define the lineup that will take to the field this Sunday (03), at Maracanã.
The entire red and black squad arrives at Ninho do Urubu at around 9am (Brasília time) to start the last day of training before the final. In this way, Filipe Luís will evaluate the performance of the midfield and attack players to define the replacements for Erick Pulgar (suspended), De La Cruz (injured) and Bruno Henrique (suspended).
The tendency is for Filipe Luís to place Evertton Araújo, Alcaraz and Michael in the places of Pulgar, De La Cruz and Bruno Henrique. However, names like Allan, Léo Ortiz and Plata are left out. It is worth remembering that Fabrício Bruno would gain space in the defense if the coach chooses to leave Léo Ortiz as midfielder.
Recovered from muscle discomfort in his right thigh, Alex Sandro trains normally in preparation for the final. Therefore, the former Juventus (ITA) player should return to Flamengo’s lineup on the left flank, leaving Ayrton Lucas on the bench.
PROBABLE FLAMENGO SQUAD
Flamengo’s probable lineup for the first game of the Copa do Brasil final, against Atlético-MG, has: Rossi; Wesley, Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira and Alex Sandro; Evertton Araújo, Alcaraz (Fabrício Bruno) and Arrascaeta; Gerson, Michael (Plata) and Gabigol.
