Out of the first leg of the Libertadores due to suspension, Arrascaeta returns as one of Flamengo's main bets for this Wednesday's (20) match against Internacional. With four assists against the Gaúcho team, the Uruguayan can increase this number and make the Colorado team the second biggest victim since he arrived at the Rubro-Negro club.
Since 2019, Arrascaeta has accumulated 100 assists with the Flamengo jersey. Vasco leads the list among the most impacted opponents, with nine goal passes from the Uruguayan midfielder. Next, Athletico-PR and Corinthians appear with five each. Right behind, with four, are Fluminense, Fortaleza, Grêmio, Internacional and Palmeiras, all equally affected by the vision of the number 10 player.
And, if it depends on the number 10, Internacional has a good chance of moving up in the ranking of the biggest victims. Two of the four goal passes against the Gaúcho team happened recently. Last Sunday (17), in a match valid for the 20th round of the Brasileirão, the Uruguayan served teammates in two plays that resulted in goals at Beira-Rio, reinforcing the protagonism against this Wednesday's (20) opponent.
With Arrascaeta available, Flamengo faces Internacional at 9:30 pm (Brasília time) this Wednesday (20), at Beira-Rio Stadium. Globo shows the match on open TV. In addition, ESPN (cable channel) and Disney + (streaming) also broadcast the match. Meanwhile, Coluna do Fla provides complete coverage, with real-time updates on the website, social networks and YouTube.
