In the next round of the Brazilian Championship, Flamengo will have an away game against Cuiabá. However, before that confrontation, on Saturday night (20), the opponent will be Atlético-MG. In this specific match, two Flamengo players are hanging with yellow cards and, therefore, run the risk of being left out of the duel against Cuiabá if they receive another yellow card.
These players are midfielder Arrascaeta and striker Gabigol. Both must be careful to avoid a new warning and consequent suspension for the next game. Athletes should act as starters in the game against Atlético-MG, the likely lineup should have: Matheus Cunha; Wesley, Fabrício Bruno, Léo Pereira and Filipe Luís; Thiago Maia (Victor Hugo), Gerson, Everton Ribeiro and Arrascaeta; Bruno Henrique and Gabigol.
If Arrascaeta is cautioned with the card, Argentine coach Jorge Sampaoli will have problems finding a creative solution for the team. On the other hand, in the case of Gabriel Barbosa, striker Pedro could be an option. The number 9 shirt is Fla's top scorer in 2023 with 26 goals. Check out Flamengo's probable lineup against Atlético-MG below.

Despite playing with ten men since the 31st minute of the first half , Real Madrid defeated Real Sociedad 2-1 this Saturday at the Anoeta stadium in San Sebastián. Mbappé opened the scoring and also provided the assist for Güler to extend the lead, while Oyarzabal scored for the Basque team.
With the result, the Madrid team remains at the top of the Spanish Championship, with 12 points and a 100% record after four rounds. The match had a decisive moment in the first half, when defender Huijsen received a straight red card for pulling down Oyarzabal during a Real Sociedad counterattack.
At that point, the visitors were already leading 1-0 with a goal from Mbappé , who also hit the post and was instrumental in the second goal, scored by Güler . In the second half, led by Oyarzabal, Real Sociedad increased the pressure. Marín hit Courtois's post, and soon after, Oyarzabal reduced the deficit from the penalty spot in the 10th minute. The Basque team's number 10 even forced a great save from the Belgian goalkeeper on another attempt.
Among the Brazilians, Vini Júnior started but had a lackluster performance and was replaced by Fran García in the 23rd minute of the second half . Éder Militão showed defensive confidence and appeared in attack on a few occasions. Rodrygo remained on the bench for the entire match.
With Real Sociedad pressing, coach Xabi Alonso reinforced the defense in the final stretch . Real Madrid managed to hold on to their lead and return to the Spanish capital with high morale ahead of their Champions League opener next Tuesday against Olympique de Marseille at the Santiago Bernabéu.

Brazilian coach rules out leaving for Turkey, remains focused on the Mais Querido project and should sign a new contract renewal soon

As initially revealed by journalists Rodrigo Mattos and Bruno Braz, Turkey's Fenerbahçe presented an official proposal to Filipe Luís's staff following José Mourinho's dismissal. The Turkish team positively evaluated the Brazilian coach's work and signaled financial compensation.
However, Filipe Luís quickly decided not to accept the offer. The board, led by Bap, along with the football department led by José Boto, acted behind the scenes to prevent the coach's loss.
After a year at the helm, Filipe Luís has won titles, worked consistently, and maintained a firm stance in leading the team. One of the most talked-about cases was Pedro's, which the coach resolved efficiently , reinforcing his internal management capabilities.
According to Mônica Alves, the Rio de Janeiro club has already submitted a contract renewal proposal to Filipe Luís. The agreement is expected to be signed soon. Initially, the new contract will last for one more season, with the possibility of a two-year extension. Despite the financial compensation offered by Fenerbahçe, the coach preferred to continue working in Rio de Janeiro.
While negotiating the renewal, Rubro-Negro prepares for the 23rd round of the Brasileirão Betano Série A. Flamengo faces Juventude this Sunday (14), at 4 pm (Brasília time), at the Alfredo Jaconi Stadium, in Caxias do Sul.
