Flamengo get break to focus on recovery and season run-in | OneFootball

Filipe Luís' Team Will Have Five Games in September

Flamengo takes the field this Monday (25th), when they face Vitória, in a match valid for the 21st round of the Brasileirão. After a marathon of games that has been going on since before the Club World Cup, Fla will have a small break in their schedule.

In summary, this week it will already be possible to see some relief in the red and black calendar. That’s because Flamengo faces Vitória on Monday (25th), but then only returns to the field on Sunday (31st), against Grêmio. After that, there will be a break in commitments due to the FIFA International Break (from September 1st to 9th).

Additionally, after qualifying for the quarterfinals of the Libertadores, Flamengo will have just under a month until the first leg against Estudiantes de La Plata (ARG). In short, the first clash between the teams will take place on September 18th. On the other hand, the return leg will be played on the 25th.

Why Will Flamengo Have a Break in Their Schedule?

Although the break in the schedule is positive for the coaching staff to prepare the squad for the remainder of the season, the relief actually came from something negative. That’s because the greater spacing between matches came as a result of being eliminated from the Copa do Brasil by Atlético-MG.

On the other hand, Flamengo is trying to take something positive from this. In the meantime, the Most Beloved will focus exclusively on trying to further extend their lead at the top of the Brasileirão until the clash with Estudiantes in the Libertadores arrives.
