In the last confrontation between Flamengo and Vasco, held at the Maracanã stadium, the red-black team left its mark by winning 6-1. The game, which has already become one of the most memorable classics of the season, was the stage for a brilliant performance by Gabriel Barbosa, known as Gabigol, who found the net once again.


Flamengo dominated the field from the start, demonstrating superiority technique and tactics that soon translated into goals. The fans present at the stadium were treated to a gala performance by the team led by Tite. The team showed cohesion, speed and a hunger for goals that resulted in an elastic victory.


FLAMENGO HAS THE RETURN OF THE RUBRO-NEGRO ATTACKER


After the match, Gabigol passed through the Mixed Zone and spoke to the press about the feeling of scoring against rival Vasco. "Always special for Mengão", said the number 99, with a smile that reflected the joy of another goal in a Rio classic. The striker, known for his charismatic personality and decisive goals, reaffirmed his commitment and love for Flamengo, the club where he established himself as an idol.

From the opening whistle, Flamengo took the initiative, putting pressure on the Vasco defense and creating opportunities. In the first minutes, Arrascaeta opened the scoring with a precise shot from outside the area. The second goal didn't take long to arrive, this time with Bruno Henrique taking advantage of a defensive error to extend the advantage.

Midfielder Nicolás De La Cruz, one of Flamengo's main names, once again worried the coaching staff and the red and black fans. The player, who had recently returned from injury, suffered a new problem in the same hamstring on his right thigh. The situation occurs just a month after his last visit to the medical department, reigniting warnings about his physical condition and ability to recover.


A The first injury occurred on August 28, in a clash against Bahia for the Brazilian Championship. On that occasion, De La Cruz was substituted during the game after feeling intense pain in the back of his right thigh. Medical diagnoses confirmed a muscle injury, which sidelined the athlete for two weeks. With an intense treatment routine and an apparently successful recovery, the midfielder returned to the team on September 19, in the duel against Peñarol for the Copa Libertadores.


 ONE MONTH AFTER RETURN, ANOTHER INJURY 


Despite the expectation for his return, the concern about the physical condition of De La Cruz materialized again . On October 4th, during a training session, the player felt pain in the same region again and underwent a new medical evaluation. The diagnosis confirmed a new muscle injury, this time with a similar degree to the previous one, which should keep him away from the field for approximately two weeks. This scenario represents a challenge for coach Filipe Luís, who loses a key member of the squad at a crucial moment of the season.

FLAMENGO HAS POINTED EVOLUTION


The recurrence of the injury raises questions about the planning of the athlete's return and the way in which his recovery was conducted. Club experts point out that muscle injuries are common in high-performance athletes, especially in positions that require explosiveness and agility, as is the case of De La Cruz. However, the recurrence of the problem indicates the need for a more cautious approach, avoiding haste when returning to the field and preserving the player for the remainder of the season.


De La Cruz is one of the most prominent players at Flamengo, and his absence is felt both in the creative sector and in the finishing of plays. With the absence confirmed for the next games, Filipe Luís will have to look for alternatives in the squad to fill this gap. Player like Alcaraz appears as a viable option, but none of them have the same characteristics as the Uruguayan midfielder, which may require tactical and strategic adjustments in the team.
