IN A JOKE, GERSON PLAYS RESPONSIBILITY ON LORRAN IN A SPEECH IN THE FLAMENGO LOCKER ROOM

Lorran gained opportunities in Tite's starting team after Flamengo suffered from several absences due to the Copa América. After Mais Querido's 4-2 victory against Atlético-MG, captain Gerson gave the speech responsibility to the young man.

In images published by FlaTV, Gerson asked Lorran to send a message to Mais Querido's squad after the victory in Brasileirão. Showing shyness about the situation, the Rubro-Negro captain, in a relaxed tone, said: “You (Lorran) are no longer a promise. You can talk there.” Immediately afterwards, the midfielder thanks his teammates and congratulated everyone on the match.

FLAMENGO HIGHLIGHT

A recent gem revealed by Flamengo, Lorran has been used a lot by Tite in recent games, replacing Arrascaeta who is representing Uruguay in the Copa América. The young midfielder was also highlighted in the under-20s, scoring one of Rubro-Negro's goals in the Libertadores final.

FLAMENGO'S SITUATION IN THE BRASILEIRÃO

With the rout over Atlético -MG, Flamengo isolated itself at the top of the leaderboard, reaching 30 points. Furthermore, Mais Querido was able to count on Palmeiras' stumble against Grêmio and, thus, distanced itself by three points from second place.
