Flamengo must face the next phase of the Copa do Brasil with a reformulated team and under the command of interim coach Filipe Luís. The probable lineup for the match has been announced and brings some significant changes, with names like Alex Sandro and Gonzalo Plata appearing among the starters. These changes reflect the club's attempt to adapt the team amid injuries and suspensions.


Flamengo's probable starting lineup includes the goalkeeper Rossiin goal (or Matheus Cunha, as an option), in addition to a defense composed of Varela, Fabrício Bruno, Léo Pereira and the recently hired Alex Sandro. The defensive line is looking for solidity, especially after recent criticism regarding the team's vulnerability in decisive games. In midfield, Chilean Erick Pulgar should occupy the midfielder position, accompanied by De la Cruz (or possibly Léo Ortiz) and the experienced Gerson, who returns to play deeper to assist in the transition between defense and attack.< /p>


FLAMENGO HAS ITS DIRECTION WITH NEW COACH


This formation aims to reinforce the ball flow and guarantee greater defensive presence, something that Rubro-Negro has had difficulty executing against more aggressive attacking teams. The choice for a more balanced midfield is an attempt to make up for the lack of players like João Gomes, who recently left the club.

The role of central playmaker will be with the Uruguayan Arrascaeta, who will be responsible for conduct the plays and equip the attackers. The expectation is that the midfielder will have the freedom to move around the offensive field and explore the flanks with deep passes, using Gonzalo Plata's speed and Bruno Henrique. The rapport between Arrascaeta and Gerson will also be fundamental in dictating the pace of the game, especially in knockout matches like the Copa do Brasil.


The inclusion of Gonzalo Plata in the attack is one of the most awaited news. The Ecuadorian, who arrived as a reinforcement for the season, should take over on the right side of the field, bringing dribbling and speed to break down opposing defensive lines. Bruno Henrique, who returns to playing at a high level after recovering from injury, will be the main finisher alongside Arrascaeta.
