Embezzlement confirmed: Everton "Cebolinha" is left out of the clash against Palmeiras

18 Abr 2024 | 19:53 |

With this, coach Tite chooses to maintain the offensive formation that emerged after the departure of number 11. Bruno Henrique will occupy the left wing, Luiz Araújo will be on the right and Pedro will be centralized. The news comes as a significant loss for the team, as Everton, with their speed and skill, has been a key player in the offensive sector. His absence will certainly be felt by fans and the team as a whole. However, coach Tite did not hesitate to adjust the team, showing confidence in the players who will occupy the vacant positions.

Since the confirmation of Cebolinha, there was speculation about how Tite would reorganize the attack. The coach had several options at his disposal, including the possibility of testing new tactical formations. However, he chose to maintain the team's cohesion, trusting in players who are already familiar with the game system.

A NEW ALERT ON MAIS-DANTE

Bruno Henrique, known for his dribbling ability and finishing ability, will have the responsibility of leading the attacks on the left side of the field. Luiz Araújo, who has shown constant growth since arriving at the club, will have the opportunity to stand out on the right wing. And in the center of the attack, Pedro will seek to position himself in order to create scoring opportunities for the team.

For fans, Cebolinha's absence will certainly be a blow. His presence on the field has always generated expectations of decisive moments and brilliant plays. However, football is a dynamic sport where injuries and setbacks are part of the game. It is in these moments that the depth of the squad and the coach's ability to adapt are put to the test.

It is important to highlight that, despite the absence of Cebolinha, the confrontation against Palmeiras continues to be extremely important for the team. A victory would mean not only three points in the table, but also a demonstration of strength and determination against a traditionally difficult opponent. Each player who takes the field will have the opportunity to show their value and contribute to the team's success.

In a press conference at Ninho do Urubu, goalkeeper Agustín Rossi spoke about his desire to be called up to the Argentina national team , the current world champion. Despite his dream, the goalkeeper made it clear that his priority remains Flamengo.

Rossi on his dream of joining the Argentine national team: "My job is for Flamengo"

"Obviously, I've always wanted to be called up. I think Brazilian football is very strong, not only in South America, but worldwide as well. In the last call-up, there were players from here. But I'm not thinking about that right now . I think that if I do my job well, that call-up could come," Rossi stated.

TOTAL FOCUS ON FLAMENGO

The Argentine stressed that he keeps his feet on the ground and that his main goal is to continue showing consistency for the Rubro-Negro , who have the best defense in the Brasileirão, conceding only 10 goals in 22 games. At Maracanã, the Mais Querido conceded only three goals.

"I'm in no rush, because my job is for Flamengo , day to day, game to game. My biggest focus is to maintain this streak so that the call-up can come. Of course I have that desire, but I don't treat it as a requirement . I'm Flamengo's goalkeeper, I'm responsible for Flamengo. If the call-up comes, I'll welcome it," he added.

INCOME AND TITLES WITH THE MANTLE

Since joining Flamengo in 2023, Rossi has already won four titles. Last season, he was a key player in the undefeated Carioca Championship and also played in the Copa do Brasil victory. In 2025, he maintained his starting spot in the Supercopa do Brasil and the Campeonato Estadual . In total, he has represented Flamengo in 125 official matches, establishing himself as a pillar of the team.
