O Flamengo beat Juventude 4-2, in a match full of emotions and the leading role of Giorgian De Arrascaeta. The Uruguayan showed once again why he is a key player in the red and black scheme, directly contributing to the triumph with impressive numbers and an outstanding performance. Throughout the 90 minutes, Arrascaeta was essential for the Gávea team to be able to impose their game, dominating the midfield and being decisive in finishing and constructing plays.


ARRASCAETA'S EFFICIENCY


Arrascaeta scored a goal and was essential in the team's offensive construction. With three decisive passes, the Uruguayan was the second player with the most chances created in the match, showing his ability to connect the midfield and the attack. His passing statistics and offensive participation reflect the role he plays in the team. The number 14 led the game's shots, with five attempts on goal, showing his persistence and confidence when seeking the attack. Furthermore, the midfielder was the player who hit the target the most, with three direct shots on goal, demonstrating precision.


 THE INDIVIDUAL DRAG GAME

The game of Arrascaeta is not just about offensive numbers. The Uruguayan also had a consistent performance in duels and dribbling. In individual duels, the midfielder was extremely efficient, winning eight of the 12 clashes played, the second highest number in the match. His one-on-one ability allowed Flamengo to create spaces and open up the opponent's defense, especially in quick transitions and lateral plays. Furthermore, Arrascaeta showed his agility and ability to unbalance, completing three of the six dribbles attempted, leading the statistics in this regard.


A match against Juventude highlighted Arrascaeta's ability to combine precise finishing with game vision. In addition to scoring a goal, his five shots were essential to maintain the offensive pressure of Flamengo. He showed coolness and technique when converting one of his opportunities, directly contributing to the creation of the score.

The midfielder was crucial in giving fluidity to the red and black attack, being the main articulator in offensive transitions and the player with the most chances of goals created. Arrascaeta's performance was reflected in his rating given by the Sofascore platform: 8.7, the second highest in the match. This result reinforces his influence on the field, even in a game with other players also playing important roles.

Paulo César Zanovelli's refereeing generated complaints after the 1-1 draw between Flamengo and Grêmio, this Sunday (31), at Maracanã. Leaving the field, Samuel Lino stated that the conduct of the match favored the team from Rio Grande do Sul and disrupted the rhythm of Mais Querido.


" In the Flamengo games I've played so far, the refereeing has been very good; I have nothing to say or complain about. It was fair in the games we played. I think today it really slowed down the game, slowed things down a lot. This benefited Grêmio more than us. We were playing at home, with our own rhythm, with strong marking. A little foul here, another here. But what can you do? There's no point in talking now. There's no point in sitting here complaining," the forward emphasized.


RUBRO-NEGRO STRIKER CELEBRATES CALL-UP


Despite his disappointment with the result, Samuel Lino had reason to celebrate. The striker received his first call-up to the Brazilian national team and expressed surprise at the news.

" When I got the news, I was very happy. I was surprised, because I wasn't expecting it. I want to make the most of it; I'm expecting it to be a great time, and I'll learn a lot, " the player said after the match.


FLAMENGO RETURNS TO THE FIELD

The Brasileirão will be suspended for the FIFA World Cup. Mengão's next match will be on September 14th, against Juventude at the Alfredo Jaconi stadium. Their opponents are currently in 17th place, but are riding high after a victory over Ceará and are looking for a comeback to escape the relegation zone.

Despite the 1-1 draw between Flamengo and Grêmio at the Maracanã in the 22nd round of the Brasileirão, Samuel Lino had a special reason to celebrate. The striker was called up to the Brazilian national team for the first time , following the injury of Manchester United's Matheus Cunha.


" When I got the news, I was very happy. I was surprised, because I wasn't expecting it. I want to make the most of it; I'm expecting it to be a great time, and I'll learn a lot, " the player declared after the match.


WHY SAMUEL LINO WON THE VACANCY


Samuel Lino 's call-up was due to Matheus Cunha's injury, which meant he would miss the next few matches. Coach Carlo Ancelotti decided to opt for the Mais Querido forward , who will have a chance to play for the national team in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers against Chile and Bolivia.

On the field, the match ended in a draw. The Rio de Janeiro team's goal was scored by Arrascaeta, following an assist from Pedro . The Rio Grande do Sul team equalized late on with a penalty kick converted by goalkeeper Thiago Volpi after a deflected ball hit Ayrton Lucas's arm.


FLAMENGO WILL HAVE A BREAK IN THE BRAZILIAN CHAMPIONSHIP

The calendar is now paused for the FIFA World Cup. Mengão's next match will be on September 14th, against Juventude at Alfredo Jaconi Stadium. The Rio Grande do Sul club sits in 17th place, but is riding high after a victory over Ceará and promises to make life difficult for the Brazilian Championship leader.

Following the 1-1 draw with Grêmio in the 22nd round of the Brazilian Championship , football director José Boto responded to questions about potential reinforcements for the Mais Querido. According to the director, the club is satisfied with the squad assembled so far and is unlikely to make any further moves in the transfer market.


" The window is still open, until the 2nd. We don't have any plans to bring anyone else, but you never know because the market is volatile; an opportunity, a good deal, might arise. But, in principle, it's closed. I don't even think we have... in Portugal we say that too much water kills the plant, and I think we have enough water," declared José Boto at the Maracanã.


WHICH PLAYERS DOES RUBRO-NEGRO


During this window, the club had already made significant moves, securing the arrival of defensive midfielder Jorginho, midfielder Saúl Ñíguez, forward Samuel Lino, midfielder Jorge Carrascal, and right-back Emerson Royal. Prior to this, striker Juninho had been announced as a reinforcement earlier in the year.

With this scenario, the tendency is that the current cast will be maintained , except for any sales proposals that may arise until the closing of the window, scheduled for next Tuesday (02).


BRAZILIAN CHAMPIONSHIP BREAK FOR FIFA DATES

With the end of the round, the Brazilian Championship goes on a two-week break due to FIFA dates. Flamengo returns to action on September 14th, against Juventude, in Caxias do Sul. The match presents a historic challenge, as the team hasn't won at Alfredo Jaconi Stadium in almost three decades.
