The Flamengo's journey in search of the Brazilian Championship title continues this Sunday (03). That's because the Rubro-Negro team takes to the field against Ceará at 6:30 pm, at the Arena Castelão, for the 18th round of the Brasileirão. In this way, coach Filipe Luís released, on Saturday (02), the list of related players for the match.
Goalkeepers: Dyogo Alves, Léo Nannetti and Rossi; Defenders: Cleiton, João Victor, Léo Ortiz and Léo Pereira; Sides: Varela, Matías Viña, Alex Sandro, Ayrton Lucas and Emerson Royal. Midfielders: Allan, Arrascaeta, Evertton Araújo, Jorginho, Victor Hugo, Matheus Gonçalves and Saúl. Forwards: Bruno Henrique, Gonzalo Plata, Juninho, Samuel Lino.
Coach Filipe Luís still cannot count on three athletes. This is because Michael and Danilo are still in the medical department, while Nico De La Cruz continues to seek the best physical shape to return to the fields for Flamengo.
Flamengo, however, has important returns on the list of related players. That's because, the Most Beloved will be able to count on Arrascaeta and Jorginho against Ceará, players who were absent against Atlético-MG, in the Copa do Brasil. In addition, Samuel Lino, Emerson Royal and Saúl are also on the list.
Flamengo, currently, occupies the first position in the Brazilian Championship table, with 36 points. Right behind Mengão is Cruzeiro with 34, but with one more game compared to Filipe Luís' team.
Flamengo, now, focuses its attention on the match against Ceará, on Sunday (03), for the Brazilian Championship. The match is scheduled for 6:30 pm (Brasília time), at the Arena Castelão, with transmission from Premiere, on pay-per-view.
