Flamengo's youngster could be loaned by Real Madrid

This past Sunday (6), Bruno Henrique was once again decisive for Flamengo, scoring the winning goal against Vitória and giving the first three points to the Mais Querido in the Brasileirão. Thus, presenter Neto surrendered to the striker, asking for the number 27 in the Brazilian National Team.

Neto questioned the call-up of names like Matheus Cunha and João Pedro, citing the more than 100 goals that Bruno Henrique has with the Manto Sagrado , as a way of deserving to wear the yellow jersey.

He's always been playing a lot...

" Bruno Henrique, by the way, is not called up for the national team. Who is called up? João Pedro, Matheus Cunha. I don't even know who the guys are, I don't even know where they play. Now, Bruno Henrique can't be called up for the national team, because then... I don't know why. I don't know why Bruno Henrique can't be called up for the national team. He's always been playing really well . He has 101 goals for Flamengo ," said Neto.

NETO TALKS ABOUT 'MARKED CARDS' FOR NOT CALLING UP BRUNO HENRIQUE

The presenter also used the term "marked cards" to point out the reason for not calling up Bruno Henrique , who has stood out in Brazilian football since 2019.

" Not even being called up to the national team is absurd, right? Not even on the list, right? That's a rigged card, right? ", Neto said. It's worth remembering that Bruno Henrique was on Dorival Júnior's pre-list for the last FIFA date, but ended up not being called up.

FOCUS ON THE NEXT GAME

Now, with Bruno Henrique available, Flamengo is already focusing on the next decision of the week. That's because, Mais Querido returns to the field this Wednesday (9), in a clash against Central Córdoba, for the second round of the Libertadores, at 9:30 pm, at Maracanã.

The match between Vasco and Flamengo, valid for the fifth round of the Brazilian Championship, is still confirmed for Maracanã. Despite an injunction granted this Monday (7) that authorized the classic to be held in São Januário, Vasco's board chose to respect the agreement previously made with its rival and maintain the duel in the most traditional stadium in Rio de Janeiro football . The match is scheduled for April 19, at 6:30 pm, with the ticket price divided equally between the two teams.

The court ruling was made by Judge Regina Lúcia Chuqer de Almeida Costa de Castro Lima, of the 6th Public Finance Court. The judge accepted a class action lawsuit requesting that São Januário be used as Vasco 's home ground, thus suspending the previous ban determined by BEPE, which had alleged operational difficulties in ensuring security at the stadium. The injunction returned to the Vasco club the right to decide the location of the match , making the presence of visiting fans subject to a technical security assessment.

In her opinion, the judge criticized the security agency's stance, stating that "BEPE chose the easy way out: not doing anything." For her, technical limitations do not justify the exclusion of a stadium with historical, cultural and tourist importance for Rio de Janeiro. The decision also highlighted that the ban on games in São Januário violates principles linked to tradition and equity in local sports.

VASCO CHOOSES TO KEEP AGREEMENT

Even with the court order, Vasco's management reaffirmed the commitment previously made with Flamengo to hold the match at Maracanã. The measure aims to ensure logistical predictability and preserve the pact of good coexistence between the clubs. The presence of fans will be divided equally, with 50% of the ticket sales going to each side, ensuring a balanced and safe atmosphere during the classic.

CLASSIC VALID FOR THE FIFTH ROUND OF THE BRAZILIAN CHAMPIONSHIP

The match between Vasco and Flamengo is scheduled for April 19th and promises to shake up the national sports scene. In addition to the historical appeal of the classic, the duel could be decisive for the ambitions of both teams at the start of the competition. Despite the controversy surrounding the venue of the match, holding it at Maracanã should ensure better infrastructure and greater capacity for reception of the public.

Gustavo Quinteros , coach of Grêmio, Flamengo's next opponent in the Brasileirão , has been going through turbulent times in charge of the team from Rio Grande do Sul and arrives for the match against Mais Querido with his permanence in 'check'.

In the last five games, Grêmio has three wins, one draw and one loss, but the team's performance has left much to be desired. Behind the scenes, a possible replacement is already being discussed, and names such as Dorival Júnior are already being speculated.

PRESIDENT OF THE GRÊMIO GIVES SUPPORT TO QUINTEROS

Despite complaints from fans, Grêmio president Alberto Guerra understands that fluctuations happen during times of restructuring, and seems to support Gustavo Quinteros continuing his work with the team.

" We gave them a goal and took risks. We created situations, but we didn't convert them. There are situations where we see a certain evolution, others not. This can happen in a team that is undergoing restructuring ," said Guerra after the defeat to Ceará this Saturday (5).

GREMIO X FLAMENGO

So, before thinking about Flamengo , Gustavo Quinteros prepares Grêmio for the match against Atlético Grau (PER) for the South American, this Tuesday (8). On Sunday (13), the Rio Grande do Sul club receives Mais Querido, in a game valid for the third round of the Brasileirão, at 5:30 pm.
