Flamengo vs Carille?

The year was 2019 and Fábio Carille was still coaching Corinthians. That season, the Flamengo side led by Portuguese coach Jorge Jesus won 4-1 in the Brasileirão at Maracanã. After the defeat, the São Paulo club dismissed the coach and brought in Tiago Nunes for the position.

And what about Vitória?

It didn’t take long for Flamengo to build their lead against Vitória. Samuel Lino, Pedro, and Arrascaeta made it 3-0 for the Rubro-Negro side in the first half. After the break, the center forward found the net again for o Mais Querido.

Samuel Lino made it 5-0 for Flamengo early in the second half. Luiz Araújo, who came on in the second half, also found the net. Pedro with a chip and Bruno Henrique from the penalty spot completed the score at Maracanã, which had an audience of over 60,000 people.

What is the situation of the teams?

The rout, which led to Carille’s dismissal, kept Flamengo at the top of the table with 46 points, four more than second-place Palmeiras and five more than third-place Cruzeiro. Vitória, however, is at the opposite end, in 17th place with 19 points.
