Flamengo defeated Internacional, 3-1, in the 20th round of the Brasileirão, on Sunday (17). Meanwhile, Coluna do Fla gathered the main information about the Most Beloved this Tuesday (19). This is because the Most Beloved meets the team from Rio Grande do Sul again, now for the Libertadores, on Wednesday (20).
Flamengo returns to the field on Wednesday (20) to face Internacional. Therefore, this Tuesday (19), Filipe Luís leads the last training session of the squad before the second leg of the Libertadores round of 16. Additionally, the coach will define the starting lineup for the match at Beira-Rio.
Initially, the probable lineup for Flamengo is as follows: Rossi; Alex Sandro, Léo Pereira, Léo Ortiz, and Varela; Allan, Jorginho, Samuel Lino, Arrascaeta, and Luiz Araújo; Bruno Henrique. However, the team will still be defined in the afternoon training session this Tuesday (19).
The Copa Libertadores da América has always been a 'dream' for Brazilian teams. However, in recent years, the tournament has become a 'Brazil Cup 2.0' due to the dominance of Brazilian teams. Amidst this, the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) is negotiating with Conmebol to reduce the number of clubs participating in the competition.
Flamengo will receive from Betano almost eight times more than River Plate (ARG). While the Argentinians earn R$ 34 million annually from the main sponsor, the Red-and-Black closed a deal to receive R$ 268 million. To understand the case, Coluna do Fla investigated the reasons for this significant difference.
According to the report, four factors are crucial for this disparity in values: brand size, potential return, commercial strength, and competition.
