Flamengo loses Plata in warm-up and Wallace Yan takes the best

On Wednesday night (13), at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), Flamengo hosts Internacional at Maracanã for the first leg of the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores. In the group stage, Mais Querido qualified in second place in a group that included LDU, Deportivo Táchira and Central Córdoba.

The importance of the match prompted predictions from tarot reader Luiz Filho, from the YouTube channel Renascer das Cartas. According to his deck, Filipe Luís's team should show intensity and create opportunities against Roger Machado's team, but they will also face moments of fluctuation throughout the match.

CARDS INDICATE BALANCE

"Flamengo came up with the Wheel of Fortune card, which is a good way to move around the game and create opportunities. However, it also has its ups and downs in the match . Flamengo needs to maintain balance, as Internacional is on the other side," explained Luiz Filho.

The psychic believes that Colorado, represented by the High Priestess card, will adopt a cautious stance, observing the opponent and choosing specific moments to attack. " It will be an observant Internacional; he knows that the pressure from the first game is Flamengo's. At times, Inter will come out to play, but they will also fluctuate. We have a chance of a draw, but Flamengo 's cards are better," he added.

LAST CONFRONTATION BETWEEN THE TEAMS

The last time the teams faced each other was in the 2025 Brazilian Championship, also at Maracanã, when the duel ended in a 1-1 draw. Now, the atmosphere is decisive, with the objective of gaining an advantage for the return match at Beira-Rio.

Felipe Vizeu, 28 , is about to end his career at Clube do Remo to join Sporting Cristal in Peru . The information was released by journalist Diego Penny of Movistar Deportes, who indicated that negotiations between the teams are already underway, although the agreement has not yet been made official.

Signed by Leão in January, Vizeu played 26 matches and scored three goals for the blue team. In Série B, he played 13 matches and scored just one goal, a performance below expectations created upon his arrival.

PASSAGE THROUGH THE ROW

During his time at Baenão, the center forward won the Campeonato Paraense, but in recent months he has faced criticism due to his limited performance. As the team sought to improve its position in Série B, the pressure intensified, and Vizeu failed to establish himself as an attacking reference.

With previous spells at Flamengo, Ceará, Criciúma and Grêmio, as well as experience in European and Japanese football , the striker sees Sporting Cristal as an opportunity to regain prominence and give his career a new direction.

FELIPE VIZEU'S NUMBERS AT FLAMENGO

Revealed by Flamengo, Vizeu played for the first team from 2016 to 2018, making 75 appearances. In 2016, he appeared in 26 matches, including matches in the Brazilian Championship and Copa do Brasil. The following year, he appeared in 38 matches, establishing himself as a reliable attacking option, especially in the Copa Sudamericana.

According to the Flaestatística website, the striker accumulated 35 wins, 20 draws, and 20 losses with the red-and-black jersey. Although he didn't become a regular starter, he made his mark in decisive moments, such as scoring important goals in the knockout stages of continental tournaments.

Rodrigo Muniz's journey in European football is about to enter a new chapter. The striker, who came through the ranks at Flamengo and is currently playing for Fulham, is very close to signing with Atalanta in Italy. According to journalist Nicolò Schira, a transfer specialist, talks have made significant progress , and the deal is practically finalized.

The Italian club is preparing a €35 million (approximately R$221.5 million) offer plus bonuses for the 24-year-old striker. The verbal agreement provides for a contract until 2029, with the possibility of a one-year extension.

FLAMENGO'S STRATEGY

Flamengo is following the negotiation with great anticipation. This is because, in the 2021 sale, Flamengo retained 25% of the player's economic rights. If the transfer is completed at the reported value, the club should receive approximately €8.75 million (R$55.3 million at the current exchange rate).

The amount could increase with FIFA 's solidarity mechanism, which grants 3% to the training team, representing an additional 1.05 million euros (R$6.6 million). This would bring the total return to around R$62 million , an important financial injection for season planning.

CLUB REMAINS ACTIVE IN THE MARKET

This budget boost comes at an opportune time . After announcing four key signings this summer , Flamengo continues to monitor opportunities to fill gaps in the squad. With more resources available, the board is considering new investments until the market closes in September.
