Club with the most players called up in Brazil, Flamengo will make a big loss in the coming weeks with the Copa América dispute. Arrascaeta, De la Cruz, Erick Pulgar, Varela and Viña, four absolute starters and a left-back who had been flirting with a place in the main team due to his excellent performances, will play against Rubro-Negro for up to nine rounds of the Brazilian Championship. And this number should still rise in the second half of the year.
NOTE: In order not to delay Series A, the CBF will use the FIFA Dates (September and October) to recover the games postponed due to the floods in Rio Grande do Sul. Two rounds were pushed forward, and the tendency is for Flamengo to play against Atlético-MG in the 33rd round in a FIFA Data.
In addition, if Internacional qualifies for the South American playoffs, it must be another opponent that Rubro-Negro will have to face without its national team players.
Currently leading the Brazilian Championship with 14 points, Flamengo fears reliving the drama it went through in 2021. In the year of the last Copa América, Rubro-Negro was looking for an unprecedented third national championship in a row and the ninth in its history , but saw the many absences (between injuries and call-ups) hinder their title chances. Considering only the players in the teams, the club played 14 rounds of that edition without at least one of its selected players. In 2021, Copa América was the one that weighed the most
As that year's calendar only started in March due to the Covid-19 pandemic stopping the previous season, the Copa América started almost simultaneously with the Brazilian Championship. It began with the third round, and Flamengo at the time, current two-time champion, had debuted with a victory over Palmeiras and had its second match, against Grêmio, postponed.
Between the third and 10th round , Rubro-Negro had another game postponed, against Athletico-PR, and played seven matches during the Copa América, when Gabigol and Everton Ribeiro were in the Brazilian team, while Arrascaeta and Isla, in the Uruguayan and Chilean teams, respectively. Flamengo beat América-MG (2-0 at Maracanã); lost to Bragantino (3-2 at Maracanã); beat Fortaleza (2-1 at Maracanã); was defeated by Juventude (1-0 at Alfredo Jaconi); beat Cuiabá (2-0 at Arena Pantanal); and lost to Fluminense (1-0 at Neo Química Arena) and Atlético-MG (2-1 at Mineirão).
Without their squad, Flamengo only had 42.8% success and entered in crisis, which made him fire coach Rogério Ceni and hire Renato Gaúcho. At the opening of the 11th round, Rubro-Negro still had two games in hand and was in 12th place with 12 points, 10 behind leader Palmeiras.
