Cristiane scores, Flamengo thrash Bragantino, stay perfect in league | OneFootball

Flamengo had no trouble securing another victory in the Women's Brasileirão

Good start for Flamengo in the Women's Brazilian Championship! After debuting with a win over Mixto-MT, the girls from Gávea defeated Red Bull Bragantino on Friday night (20th), in the second round, by 4 to 2. The match took place at Estádio Luso-Brasileiro, in Rio de Janeiro.

Of the teams that have already played two games, only Flamengo, Palmeiras, and Corinthians remain with a 100% record in the Women's Brasileirão. It's worth noting that the two teams from São Paulo are considered the main favorites to win the competition.

HOW WAS THE GAME AGAINST BRAGANTINO?

With the support of the fans, Flamengo didn't take long to open the scoring. After a scramble in the box, goalkeeper Letícia punched the ball out poorly, and defender Nubia broke the deadlock just two minutes into the first half. The second goal came at the 21st minute.

After a shot from the red-and-black team, Letícia awkwardly deflected the ball forward, and Jucinara, with finesse, gave it a gentle touch over the keeper to extend the lead. However, just when it seemed that Flamengo was heading for a rout, Camila Ambrozio pulled one back for Bragantino at the 25th minute.

At 44 minutes into the first half, Flamengo scored the third. Monalisa received a short corner pass and sent it into the box. Layza rose above everyone and headed it into the back of the net, putting the Rubro-Negro in a great position on the scoreboard.

With a comfortable lead, Flamengo slowed the pace in the second half, but still found the net. At the 15th minute, Cristiane received a cross from the left and made no mistake: Mengão 4-1, and what a show! In stoppage time, Bragantino managed to score again with Rafa Mineira.

WHEN IS FLAMENGO'S NEXT GAME, AFTER ALL?

The next round of the Women's Brasileirão takes place only on March 13th, with the classic against Botafogo. Before that, however, the Rubro-Negro will have commitments in the Copa Rio. On March 1st, 5th, and 8th, Mengão will face Heips, Botafogo, and Fluminense, respectively.
