Flamengo announce line-up with Lino and Emerson Royal vs Ceará | OneFootball

Flamengo Faces Ceará Starting at 6:30 PM (Brasília Time) This Sunday (03)

The Flamengo is set and ready to face Ceará, for the 18th round of the Brasileirão. Therefore, the Rubro-Negro released the 11 players who will start the match at Arena Castelão, with a debut in the starting lineup. For the first time, Samuel Lino and Emerson Royal will start a match with the Sacred Mantle. Otherwise, there are no major news, with the returns of Jorginho and Arrascaeta to the team.

WHAT IS FLAMENGO'S LINEUP FOR THE MATCH AGAINST CEARÁ?

Starters: Rossi; Emerson Royal, Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira and Alex Sandro; Jorginho, Evertton Araújo and Arrascaeta; Gonzalo Plata, Samuel Lino and Bruno Henrique.

Reserves: Dyogo Alves, Léo Nannetti, Varela, João Victor, Cleiton, Ayrton Lucas, Viña, Allan, Victor Hugo, Saúl, Matheus Gonçalves and Juninho.

Jorginho and Arrascaeta were preserved last Thursday (31), when Flamengo faced Atlético-MG in the Copa do Brasil. However, the Brasileirão is treated as the top priority at Rubro-Negro, and the maximum available strength is lined up for Mengão to stay one more round at the top of the Brasileirão.

Filipe Luís had to think hard to set up the lineup, after all, Flamengo has nine absentees. Due to suspension, Pedro and Wallace Yan did not even travel to Fortaleza. In addition, Erick Pulgar, De La Cruz, Danilo, Michael, Everton Cebolinha, Luiz Araújo and Matheus Cunha are unfit to play physically.

SAMUEL LINO ALREADY IN THE STARTING LINEUP?

Despite having less than a week with Flamengo, Samuel Lino will already have the chance to start. The striker came on in the second half against Atlético-MG and delighted fans, with a nearly assist to Emerson Royal, a disallowed goal in stoppage time, and dazzling dribbles against the opposing defense.

This is added to the fact that there are many absentees in the sector: Pedro, Wallace Yan, Michael, Everton Cebolinha and Luiz Araújo. As Samuel Lino played the Club World Cup for Atlético de Madrid (ESP), the winger is in shape and will already be used from the start by Filipe Luís.

WHERE TO WATCH CEARÁ X FLAMENGO?

Thus, the match Ceará x Flamengo will be broadcast by Record, on open TV. In addition, Premiere, through pay-per-view, and CazéTV, on YouTube, will show the match.
