Corinthians managed to beat Flamengo this past Sunday afternoon (1), in a match valid for the 25th round of the Brasileirão. In addition to losing points, Mais Querido also loses Ayrton Lucas for the next game, as the left-back received his third yellow card and is out of the classic against Vasco.
The yellow card received by Ayrton Lucas was after the player questioned referee Ramon Abatti Abel's decision. During the play, the full-back dribbled past two markers and fell after contact with his opponents. However, the judge interpreted that the athlete simulated a penalty.
POSSIBLE ALEX SANDRO DEBUT
Thus, with Ayrton Lucas out of the next Brasileirão game , Alex Sandro, Mais Querido's new reinforcement, has the chance to make his debut at Maracanã. Furthermore, Léo Pereira can also be improvised in the position.
Coach Tite will have around 13 days to prepare the team before facing Vasco. This is because the Brazilian calendar will have a break for the FIFA Date on the 5th and 10th of September, respectively.
FLAMENGO faces Vasco on Sunday (15), at 6:30 pm, at Maracanã, for the 26th round of the Brasileirão. However, before worrying about the match, Rubro-Negro focuses on the return match against Bahia, in the quarter-finals of the Copa do Brasil, on September 12th.
The player has good minutes with Filipe Luís and has already started in several matches in the 2025 season; for this reason, he has attracted the attention of European clubs.

Coach Filipe Luís's darling, midfielder Evertton Araújo, is being targeted by European clubs and could boost Flamengo's coffers in the transfer window. He is another member of Flamengo's squad who has been attracting interest from clubs across Europe.
The 22-year-old has received inquiries from several European clubs in recent weeks, including Eintracht Frankfurt in Germany and Villarreal and Sevilla, both in Spain. People close to the youngster expect offers to be formalized soon.
Flamengo , meanwhile, is waiting for something concrete to assess Evertton Araújo's future. Despite receiving constant praise from Filipe Luís, competition in the midfielder's position has caused him to lose ground, making him play only once in the Club World Cup, against LAFC in the group stage.
The midfielder made the step up to Flamengo's first team in 2024. In total, he has made 47 appearances for the first team, scoring two goals. He has a contract with Flamengo until 2028, and as mentioned, he is a favorite of coach Filipe Luís, who has given him a significant amount of minutes this season.
The information that a member of the football department said he would like to receive an offer of 15 million euros to sell Pedro did not go down well.

The relationship between coach Filipe Luís and striker Pedro is at an all-time low. This is because the coach spoke seriously and publicly reprimanded the player after the victory over São Paulo last Saturday. Filipe highlighted Pedro's poor training performances and described some of the player's behavior as "regrettable," as he has been a reserve on the team.
With all this, a video was released in which the two, coach and striker, appear arguing live, in a rather strong tone, surprising those who were watching.
With all this happening at Flamengo , the Instagram gamer profile " @adeeextv " rescued a live broadcast of the former Flamengo player and now at Fluminense, Renê. In it, Filipe Luís, at the time still a player, complains to the same Pedro, but playing Call of Duty Warzone.
This livestream took place in 2020/2021, during the Warzone 1 era with Cold War integration. Filipe Luís, Pedro, and Renê were all Flamengo players at the time. The fourth player in the squad, nicknamed "COD's Van Djik," was apparently William Arão (also a Flamengo player).
Check out the video:
Call of Duty: Warzone is a free-to-play battle royale video game developed by Infinity Ward and Raven Software, and published by Activision. Released on March 10, 2020, it is available for PlayStation, Xbox, and PC. The game is part of the Call of Duty franchise and offers an online multiplayer experience where up to 150 players (up to 200 in some modes) compete on a large map, aiming to be the last one standing, or team standing.
At the time, it was common for Renê or Willian Arão and some Flamengo players to have fun online and generate funny videos among the club's fans, who watched and commented on their stars in online battles.
The teams face each other in the first leg on July 31st, while the return leg will be played on August 6th, at Arena MRV, in the national knockout stage.
