Fulfilling the "promise" made earlier, Flamengo officially announced the list of players for the match this Thursday (31) only after their arrival at Maracanã.
The expectation was for the presence of Saúl, Emerson Royal, and especially Samuel Lino. They were included.
Recovered, Ayrton Lucas and Alex Sandro are back.
But Arrascaeta was left out. The same goes for Cebolinha. Both due to "load management" according to Flamengo.
Carrascal arrived last Wednesday (30) and will be presented to the fans before the match starts.
Danilo (right thigh), Pulgar (right thigh), De La Cruz (left knee), Michael (left ankle) are the injured players.
The return match will be next Wednesday (6), at Arena MRV.
The team that qualifies will secure a prize of R$ 4.7 million.
And their next opponent will be determined in a new draw.
