Flamengo takes to the field this Wednesday (20) to face Internacional at the Beira-Rio Stadium, in a match valid for the Copa Libertadores. Before the duel against the red and black team, the Rio Grande do Sul team is experiencing the biggest crisis of the season due to the results.
This is because coach Roger Machado is under pressure due to the team's performance and results. Internacional was eliminated in the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil by Fluminense, after losing at home and drawing in Rio de Janeiro.
In addition, Internacional occupies the uncomfortable 12th place in the Campeonato Brasileiro, with 24 points won. It is worth mentioning that the team led by Roger Machado has one game less compared to the current round of the tournament.
Internacional may have the crisis aggravated this Wednesday (20). This is because, if they don't beat Flamengo, they will be eliminated from the Copa Libertadores in the round of 16. Thus, the Gauchos will only have the Campeonato Brasileiro until the end of the year.
Therefore, Flamengo faces Internacional this Wednesday (20), at 9:30 pm, at the Beira-Rio Stadium, in a match valid for the second leg of the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores. In this way, Coluna do Fla brings all the information before and after the duel.
