De la Cruz will continue to miss Flamengo this Thursday in the match against Bahia, qualifying for a place in the semi-finals of the Copa do Brasil. The Uruguayan midfielder has not yet managed to recover from the injury to his right thigh, continues without training on the field and is already out of Tite's deck for the game in two days, at 9:45 pm (Brasília time) at Maracanã.
On the other hand, the coach has confirmed the return of Arrascaeta, Gabigol and Léo Pereira. Recovered from injuries, the three trained normally this Tuesday at Ninho do Urubu and will be options for the coach to define the lineup in the last activity for the match, this Wednesday afternoon at CT.
This Wednesday, Varela, Pulgar, Gerson and Fabrício Bruno return from Data Fifa after defending their teams this Tuesday, and depending on their physical conditions they could also be available to Tite against Bahia. As a result, the coach would not have had De la Cruz in the lineup in the first game, when they won 1-0 at Fonte Nova. Arrascaeta appears as the favorite for the vacancy.
In addition to De la Cruz, Cebolinha (left ankle), Viña (right knee), Pedro (left knee) and Michael (right thigh) are also in the medical department. In addition to these, Carlinhos (already played in the Copa do Brasil for Nova Iguaçu) and reinforcements Alex Sandro, Alcaraz and Gonzalo Plata (are not registered at this stage of the tournament) will also not be able to play on Thursday.
The teams play the first game of the quarterfinals at 7 p.m.

Tite defined Flamengo and announced the 11 starters who will face Peñarol, this Thursday, at Maracanã, at 7pm. De la Cruz returns to the starting lineup in place of Léo Ortiz, and Alex Sandro and Plata were retained. The duel with the Uruguayans is the first between the teams in the quarter-finals of the Copa Conmebol Libertadores.
Alex Sandro and Plata, debutants in last Sunday's classic, remain in the team after having good performances in the draw against Vasco. Gabigol is now out of the relationship due to fibrosis in the posterior muscle of his right thigh. Flamengo, in a statement, reported that the athlete did not suffer any injury in the region. Check it out:
"The Clube de Regatas do Flamengo informs that the athlete Gabriel Barbosa underwent tests that did not diagnose an injury to the posterior muscle of his right thigh. However, the Technical Committee opted for precaution and did not list him for the duel against Peñarol due to fibrosis in the region. Gabi is handed over to physiotherapists and physical trainers for the series of decisive games of the season."
Match starts at 7pm this Thursday
