FLAMENGO ALREADY HAS THE RETURN OF BRUNO HENRIQUE PLANNED - CHECK OUT

This Wednesday (26), the Flamengo will take to the field against Juventude at 8pm, at Alfredo Jaconi, for the 12th round of the Brazilian Championship. The clash promises to be challenging not only due to the opponent, but also due to the adverse weather conditions predicted for the day of the game. According to the website "Clima Tempo", the weather forecast for Wednesday indicates heavy rain throughout the day in Caxias do Sul. The probability of precipitation is high, with an 86% chance, and an accumulated rainfall of 30mm. Temperatures will be between 10°C and 13°C, adding an extra challenge for the teams on the field.

Flamengo has already faced similar situations in Caxias do Sul. The region's climate can be a decisive factor, influencing not only the state of the pitch, but also the dynamics of the game. In the last matches held at Alfredo Jaconi, the weather conditions were not favorable for the Rio team, which needs to prepare for a heavy and possibly slippery game scenario.

FLAMENGO GOES AFTER VICTORY

Preparation for this game should also consider recent weather events in the region. Last Monday (24), it rained hail in Bento Gonçalves, a city close to Caxias do Sul, in Serra Gaúcha. This phenomenon highlights the climate instability that can directly affect team performance and player safety.

For Flamengo, playing in adverse conditions can be a significant test for the team. Heavy rain can make it difficult to move the ball and execute the strategies planned by the coach. Furthermore, the low temperature can influence the physical resistance of players, especially those less accustomed to the colder climate in the south of the country.

David Luiz has been an important player for the Flamengo, standing out both for its technical performance and physical resistance. The 37-year-old defender started Rubro-Negro's last six games, demonstrating enviable consistency. In five of those matches, he remained on the field from start to finish, only being substituted in the last duel against Fluminense due to knee pain.

The veteran defender has shown that he still has a lot to offer Flamengo. His presence on the field goes beyond simple defensive performance; David Luiz contributes significantly to the construction of plays and has even found the back of the opponent's net. The experience acquired throughout his international career has been reflected in the security he transmits to the red and black defense.

A STRONG RISE IN THE LAST SEASON

In recent games, David Luiz not only did well his role in the defense as well as taking on the responsibility of leading the team. His vision of the game and ability to organize the defensive line have been fundamental for Flamengo to maintain defensive consistency. Furthermore, his competitive spirit and determination are clear examples of professionalism for younger players.

Despite his age, David Luiz has demonstrated impressive physical shape. Participating in five complete games in a short period requires exemplary physical preparation. Even in the duel against Fluminense, where he needed to be replaced, the defender showed willingness and commitment until the moment the pain in his knee became unbearable.

On the afternoon of this past Sunday (23), Flamengo beat Fluminense by the score of 1-0, with a goal from Pedro from the penalty spot. The move in question is being widely debated among rival fans, who believe that the penalty against Bruno Henrique did not occur. Due to the complaints, the CBF released the VAR audio of the confrontation.CHECK OUT THE VAR'S DIALOGUEGuarizo: – It has to be a high (camera) to see if this arm It has an impact on the player.

The penalty shot against Bruno Henrique took place in the 36th minute of the second half. The number 27 won at Lucas Calegari's speed and invaded the area. The full-back fell, and as he fell, he "twisted legs" with the Mais Querido striker. Thus, maximum penalty.

Before the penalty on Bruno Henrique was scored, in the final minutes of the first half David Luiz suffered a penalty from Goose. However, the CBF did not release the audio of this move. There is an expectation that the entity will publish this week.

Now, with the victory over Fluminense, Flamengo has consolidated its leadership of the Brasileirão, with 24 points. Therefore, to further increase the gap between their rivals, Rubro-Negro will try to beat Juventude, this coming Wednesday (26), at 8pm.
