After being left out of the last few matches due to a technical option, Matías Viña has been included in Flamengo's squad again . The Uruguayan returns for the Mais Querido's match against Vitória this Monday (25) at Maracanã, at a crucial moment in the season, in which the team seeks to maintain its lead in the Brazilian Championship and prepare for decisions in the Copa Libertadores.
Viña on his return to the pitch at Flamengo: "Happy for the first victory and for the return"
Viña underwent a long recovery process from an injury that kept him out of action for nine months . In June, the number 17 returned to the squad and, at the time, emphasized the need to adapt to the rhythm of the game.
"Happy with the first victory and the return. After months, I started playing longer. I spoke to Filipe and said I was tired, my legs were heavy. I stayed a little further back, which isn't my style , but it was good," said the full-back.
With a string of important matches ahead, the full-back could gain new opportunities and contribute his experience to bolster the red-and-black defense. Recently, coach Filipe Luís admitted that his absence from the squad list was a technical decision.
Despite his limited playing time, Viña's return represents another opportunity for Filipe Luís to build his team in a schedule that promises to be crucial for Flamengo . Against Vitória, the full-back is hoping to start and earn crucial minutes for his future.
With a nearly complete squad, Filipe Luís's team is looking for an important victory to stay at the top, while their rivals from Bahia are trying to get out of the Z-4.

Vitória ended this Sunday (24) the preparation to face Flamengo , in a game scheduled for this Monday (25), at 9 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã, for the 21st round of the Brazilian Championship . Check out the details of Leão:
Midfielder Willian Oliveira has recovered from a knee injury and is back at the disposal of coach Fábio Carille . Zé Marcos and Ronald are also back after suspensions. Defender Neris will be out of the squad after being sent off against Juventude and is serving an automatic suspension.
The medical department remains full : Claudinho, Cáceres, Jamerson, Baralhas, Rúben Ismael, and Romarinho are still recovering, while Matheuzinho is in physical transition. Given the high number of injuries, Carille named three youngsters from the youth academy: defender Andrei, defensive midfielder Edenilson, and midfielder Wendell.
With the many absences, the tendency is for Vitória to enter the field against Flamengo with: Lucas Arcanjo; Edu (or Lucas Braga), Lucas Halter, Zé Marcos and Ramon; Ricardo Ryller (or Willian Oliveira), Ronald and Cantalapiedra (or Pepê); Erick, Osvaldo and Renato Kayzer.
Vitória has 19 points from 20 games and is in the relegation zone of the Brasileirão . During Sunday's training session, the team performed warm-ups, tactical and technical exercises focusing on possession, and defensive set-piece drills. The goalkeepers participated in position-specific drills.
