The clash between Flamengo and Cruzeiro in the fifth round of the Brasileirão has several 'spices'. The goalkeeper Cássio, for instance, is a frequent opponent of Mengão. Therefore, the Rubro-Negro relies on the track record against the goalkeeper to win on Wednesday (11), at Maracanã.
Cássio has played against Fla 32 times in his career, but conceded 38 goals. In other words, it's as if the goalkeeper has let in at least one goal per game so far. The professional was at Corinthians before transferring to the Minas Gerais club.
Furthermore, the Most Beloved has already thrashed the number 1 a few times. On the last occasion, however, the goal defender was still at Corinthians when the Rubro-Negro won 5 to 1. The thrashing occurred in the Brasileirão of 2020, which ended in Fla's hands.
With Cássio's history, Flamengo plays this Wednesday (11) against Cruzeiro. The ball rolls from 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at Maracanã, for the fifth round of the Brazilian Championship.
Thus, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details of the match between Flamengo and Cruzeiro through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, Globo (free-to-air TV), GE TV (YouTube) and Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the Brasileirão match.
