Through a social media post, Gonzalo Plata took a jab at Vasco: “Everything normal in RJ.” It's worth noting that the last victory of the Rio rival over Flamengo was in March 2023, by 1-0, in the State Championship.

How was the match between Flamengo and Vasco?

Flamengo was superior to Vasco throughout the 90 minutes. In the first half, the Red-Black had several chances to open the scoring, but was stopped by Léo Jardim. In the second half, after Cauã Barros was sent off, the Mengão continued to dominate and scored the winning goal with Jorge Carrascal.

What is the situation of Flamengo and Vasco in the Carioca?

With the victory over Vasco, Flamengo rose to fourth place in Group B, with four points. However, the Red-Black has one more game compared to the opponents, as they have already played the fifth round against Portuguesa.

On the other hand, Vasco is in third place in Group A, also with four points. However, if Fluminense and Sampaio Corrêa win, the São Januário team could end the round in the second-to-last position in the group.

What is Flamengo's next match?

With Gonzalo Plata available, Flamengo returns to the field this Sunday (25) to face Fluminense. Moreover, the classic takes place at 6 p.m. (Brasília time), at Maracanã, for the fourth round of the Carioca.

Thus, as tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details about the match between Flamengo and Fluminense, through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, Globo (open channel), GE TV (YouTube) and Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the Rio classic.
