Vasco's left-back, Lucas Piton, has been confirmed for the classic against Flamengoafter initial concerns that he might have an inguinal hernia. The possibility of the injury had raised doubts about the player's participation in the important duel, but, after medical evaluations, it was decided that he was fit to play.

At the beginning of the week, Piton reported physical discomforts that raised suspicions. of a possible inguinal hernia, a condition that could sideline him for a considerable period. The suspicion led Vasco's medical department to take caution, as inguinal hernias tend to require specialized treatment and, in some cases, even surgery.


FLAMENGO CALLS ALERT SIGN

However, in a preliminary examination carried out by the club's medical department, the presence of the injury was not found. Piton even participated in activities with the cast without feeling pain, a positive indication of his recovery. Even with these encouraging signs, doctors decided to carry out a new exam, as a safety measure, to confirm that there really is no risk of complications.



The decision to releasing Piton for the classic comes at a good time, as Vasconeeds maximum strength for the duel against Flamengo, one of the most anticipated games of the Brazilian Championship. Despite the team's difficult phase in the competition, Piton's presence on the left side of the field can bring more security to the defensive system and contribute to supporting the attack, characteristics that the player has shown since arriving at the club.
