Injuries have been a big problem for Flamengo this season. In August, the club recorded seven injuries, five of them muscular. The month of September began with Pedro's serious injury, which ruptured the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee. The last time coach Tite had the entire squad available was exactly 208 days ago. The survey is from 'GE'.

The last game in which Flamengo had all able players was against Volta Redonda, on February 10, in the third round of the Campeonato Carioca. Since then, the club has always had at least one athlete in the medical department in every match.


In that game, De la Cruz left the field with pain in his right shoulder, missing the team in the following round against Bangu . Shortly afterwards, Gerson was diagnosed with hydronephrosis and kidney infection, undergoing kidney surgery. The midfielder was only mentioned again in April.


It is important to highlight that, between the end of February and March, Flamengo lived for a few days with the medical department almost empty, with only Gerson missing while he was was recovering from surgery.

This Wednesday, Flamengo expanded its list of absences, reaching eight absences. During training for the Brazilian team, Pedro sprained his left knee and suffered a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament. He joins Everton Cebolinha and Viña, who are also out until 2025.


With three players already out until next year, Flamengo's medical department will not be empty until the end of the season. Gabigol, Arrascaeta, De la Cruz and Léo Pereira should return against Bahia, on the 12th, for the Copa do Brasil. Throughout the season, Flamengo has already accumulated 43 clinical absences in at least one match, including cases of players being rested due to injuries or physical problems.

Brazil ended its participation in the Paris Paralympics this Sunday (8) with its best campaign in the history of the competition. According to the objective established by the Brazilian Paralympic Committee, the Brazilian delegation in Paris broke the record for medals in a single edition of the Games, with 89, achieved the highest number of golds, 25, and secured the unprecedented top 5 in the medals table.

It was not easy to secure fifth place. After spending the first few days among the five best countries at the Paralympics, Brazil came to occupy eighth place in the medals quarter at the end of Thursday (5), four days before the end of the Games. But from Friday (6) recovery came. With four gold medals won, Brazil reached seventh place and came up against France and Italy, which would become the great opponent for fifth place.

Medal after medal, Brazil and Italy fought for the top 5 in the table of medals. On Saturday (7), Brazilian athletes secured the country's best day in the history of the Paralympics with six golds, three silvers and seven bronzes, and sixth place in the classification. With such a performance, Brazil surpassed the 72 podiums and 22 gold medals from Tokyo 2022, achieving its best campaign in both categories.


However, it still lacked a position in the top five. The Italians had 24 gold medals, one more gold medal than Brazil, and slept in fifth place. That would change this Sunday morning (8).


In the first events of the last day of the race, Brazil won two more gold medals and overtook Italy. First, Fernando Rufino was champion in canoeing, winning gold in the 200m VL2 and leaving the countries tied. The race also had another Brazilian on the podium. Igor Tofalini finished in second place and took silver. Then, in the event that would bring the top 5 to Brazil, Tayana Medeiros broke the Paralympic record by lifting 156kg in the 86kg category and took gold.

Italy did not win any competition and no longer competes in competitions. Thus, Brazil guaranteed its best campaign in the history of the Paralympics. The great Brazilian highlights, as usual, were athletics, which reached its 200th medals won, and swimming, with 36 for the first and 26 for the second discipline.
