In a survey carried out by GE's Espião Estatístico involving the Brasileirão Série A penalties, the defender of Flamengo, Fabrício Bruno, appears on the list of players who committed the most penalties in the last 10 years.

The defender of Mais Querido appears as one of the last athletes in the ranking. In total, there were seven penalties committed in the survey. Fabrício ended up compromising the defenses of Cruzeiro, Bragantino and Flamengo. In other words, almost all the clubs he has played for, except Chapecoense.

ONLY ONE PENALTY COMMITTED PLAYING FOR FLAMENGO

The good news is that Fabrício only committed one penalty while wearing the Sacred Mantle . However, it was in the fateful game against Fluminense< /a>, in April 2023, in the Carioca final, where Mais Querido finished runner-up.


In first place in the ranking is Luan, with 11 penalties committed in just two teams, Vasco and Palmeiras . Below the player is Matheus Ferraz, for Sport and América MG, with 10 penalties.

FABRÍCIO CAN REACH AN IMPORTANT MARKET FOR FLAMENGO

With his contract renewed until the end of 2028, < a href="https://gazetadourubu.com/noticia/confronto-entre-flamengo-e-fluminense-pode-marcar-milenar-fabricio-bruno" target="_blank">Fabrício Bruno is close to beating an important brand for Rubro Negro. The defender can reach 100 games for Mais Querido this Sunday (25), in the classic against Fluminense. He would reach his 100th game against Boavista, but was rested by coach Tite and did not enter the field.

On Thursday night (19), Flamengo hosted Peñarol at Maracanã for the first leg of the quarter-finals of the Copa Libertadores da América and came out with an unfavorable result. In front of more than 64 thousand fans, the team led by Tite had several opportunities, but failed to score.

The Uruguayan team took advantage of one of the few chances and, with a goal from Cabrera, secured a 1-0 victory. Now, Mengão will need to reverse the deficit in the second leg, scheduled for next Thursday- fair (26), in Montevideo.


This Thursday's defeat puts the Rio team in a delicate situation. To guarantee qualification to the semi-finals, Mais Querido will need to win by two goals at the Campeón del Siglo Stadium. A simple victory will take the decision to penalties, while any other score guarantees Peñarol's place. The result was even more painful for the club, as Flamengo has not lost at Maracanã in Libertadores competitions since 2019, also to Peñarol.



DIRECT CONFRONTATION BETWEEN FLAMENGO AND PEÑAROL

The return game is full of expectations, mainly due to the historic rivalry between the two teams in the South American competition. The winner of this duel will face, in the semifinals, the winner of the clash between Botafogo and São Paulo. On the other side of the bracket, there are River Plate (Argentina), Colo-Colo (Chile), Fluminense and Atlético-MG, which makes the path to the final even more competitive.


FLAMENGO AND PEÑAROL RETURN TO THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS

Before the decisive match for the Libertadores, both teams have commitments for their national leagues. CRF travels to Porto Alegre to face Grêmio, next Sunday (22), at 6:30 pm, for the Brazilian Championship. Peñarol faces Cerro, also on Sunday, at 7pm, away from home, in the Clausura of the Uruguayan Championship.

Flamengo entered the field on Thursday night. With a packed Maracanã, Tite's men played the first match of the Libertadores quarter-finals against Peñarol (URU). The objective was to play a good game and take an advantage for the return game, next week. In this sense, the Rio team ended up disappointing the more than 60 thousand paying guests at the stadium and lost 1-0, in one of the team's worst matches of the year.

Summary

Peñarol It started well and Peñarol soon showed that it would play on the red and black error. Therefore, the Uruguayans opened the scoring after 12 minutes, with Cabrera, in a counterattack. Soon after, Flamengo responded with Plata's header hitting the post. But the red and black team had difficulty creating chances. In the final stretch of the first half, Flamengo grew and had great opportunities to draw. Bruno Henrique, alone, headed over goalkeeper Aguerre, who also made a great save from Arrascaeta's shot.

In the second half, Flamengo came back even better, but came up against the strong Uruguayan marking and the lack of creativity to reach the opponent's goal. Tite moved the sides, which gave Flamengo more speed, however, it had little effect due to a terrible night from Arrascaeta and De la Cruz. As a result, the result did not change and now Flamengo needs to reverse the situation away from home next week.


What now?


With the result, Flamengo will need to win by at least two goals to guarantee one of the places in the Libertadores semi-finals. The match takes place in Uruguay, next Thursday. However, Fla needs to turn the key, because there is a Brazilian Championship game to play on the weekend. Tite's men will face Grêmio, away from home, next Sunday, at 6:30 pm;

One of Flamengo's main players in 2024, Gerson has been fundamental under Tite's command. Last Sunday (15), in a 1-1 draw with Vasco, the midfielder scored Rubro-Negro's goal and stood out once again. This year, Gerson leads the list of Serie A athletes with the most minutes on the field since returning from surgery at the beginning of the season.

In March 2024, Gerson underwent kidney surgery due to hydronephrosis, a problem kidney that kept him away from Flamengo for around a month and a half. Since his return, the athlete has participated in all 37 Flamengo matches, in addition to two more for the Brazilian National Team.

Top-5 Serie A Athletes with the Most Minutes (After Gerson's Return):< /b>

1. Gerson (Flamengo) – 3246 minutes

2. Marcos Felipe (Bahia) – 3108 minutes


3. Fabrício Bruno (Flamengo) – 3077 minutes


4. Weverton (Palmeiras) – 3028 minutes

5. Agustín Rossi (Flamengo) – 3020 minutes


Of Flamengo's 37 games since the medical problem, Gerson started 32. The midfielder was a substitute in the first three matches of the Brasileirão, while he regained his rhythm after surgery, and was also on the bench in the duel against Botafogo, after playing 90 minutes against Bolívar (BOL) at altitude, in the group stage of the Libertadores.

After that, Gerson started 21 consecutive matches as a starter. He returned to the bench only in the game against São Paulo, in the second round of the Brasileirão return, when Tite opted for an alternative team. Gerson entered the final part of that match.

Next Appointment

With Gerson available, Flamengo is preparing for the quarter-finals of the Libertadores. Fla will face Peñarol (URU) this Thursday (19), at 7pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã. The return game is scheduled for September 26th, at the same time, at the Campeón del Siglo Stadium, in Montevideo.
