The captain's exit raises an alert for Fla, amid the Libertadores decision next Wednesday (28).
If they beat Táchira, the spot is well on track, but in case of a draw, Fla needs to hope that LDU does not beat Central Córdoba in Quito.
If LDU wins, Fla will be overtaken by the Ecuadorians and will be out of the round of 16.
The expectation for Rubro-Negro is a full house against Deportivo Táchira, with a projection of more than 63,000 fans attending the Maracanã, pushing the team in search of qualification for the round of 16.
