Flamengo and Vasco will meet again, starting at 4 pm (Brasília time) this Sunday (20) at the Maracanã stadium, to define who will be the first finalist of the Carioca Championship. THE National Radio broadcasts the decisive game live.
After winning the first leg, played last Wednesday (16), Rubro-Negro reaches the second game of the semifinal with a considerable advantage, because it forces Cruzmaltino to triumph by two or more goals difference to advance.

Flamengo arrives at Clássico dos Milhões with a certain problem, striker Bruno Henrique is out of the match because of a shoulder injury. Thus, the tendency is for Portuguese coach Paulo Sousa to opt for Lázaro to join the team, a player who has received opportunities in this position.
The good news is for defender David Luiz, who has recovered from a sprained knee suffered last Wednesday. In this way, Flamengo can enter the field with the following formation: Hugo; Fabricio Bruno, David Luiz and Filipe Luís; Matheuzinho, Willian Arão, João Gomes (Andreas Pereira) and Lázaro; Everton Ribeiro and Arrascaeta; Gabriel Barbosa.
Vasco arrives without problems at the start. So, if coach Zé Ricardo chooses to repeat the first lineup, the team from São Januário should enter the field with the following formation: Thiago Rodrigues; Léo Matos, Anderson Conceição, Quintero and Edimar; Zé Gabriel, Juninho, Weverton and Nenê; Gabriel Pec and Raniel.
According to goalkeeper Thiago Rodrigues, even with the disadvantage, the team cannot fail to trust the classification: “Regardless of what is said, we have to believe. Zé Ricardo [técnico] always says that Vasco is for those who believe, and it is with that spirit that we go to the game”. In addition, the team from São Januário received an extra dose of spirit last Saturday (19), when they held an open training session that had a large presence of the Vasco fans.
They will never understand this love… ??
