What was the atmosphere at Flamengo at the time?

Firstly, it's good to remember that Filipe Luís took over Flamengo in a time of crisis. At the time, under the command of Tite, the Most Beloved was far from the fight for the title of the Brazilian Championship, and also eliminated from the Libertadores.

With this, Filipe Luís did not take over Flamengo in a festive moment. However, the young coach was not shaken by the atmosphere at Ninho do Urubu and showed work right away, winning the debut match at the helm of the team.

What was Filipe Luís's first victory?

The first game of Filipe Luís at Flamengo took place at an important moment of the season. This is because, the Most Beloved was in the semifinals of the Copa do Brasil and had a duel scheduled with Corinthians, at Maracanã, on October 2, 2024.

Thus, the red-black fans went to Maracanã to support the team in another semifinal of the Copa do Brasil and, of course, to honor Filipe Luís. The score ended 1-0 for the Red-Black, but the performance of the Most Beloved impressed the fans.

Right after, in the second leg of the semifinals of the Copa do Brasil, Flamengo drew 0-0 with Corinthians, but advanced to the finals of the national competition. Later, they won the title against Atlético-MG, by 4-1 on aggregate, at Arena MRV.

How has Filipe Luís's performance at Flamengo been?

Since then, Filipe Luís has varied the level of play of Flamengo. However, in this one-year period, the coach won three more titles. In the 2025 season, the coach lifted the trophies of the Campeonato Carioca, the Taça Guanabara and the Supercopa do Brasil.

And now?

Now, this Tuesday (30), Flamengo will honor Filipe Luís for the 'anniversary' of one year at the helm of the professional team. Before taking over the main team, the coach led the U-17 and U-20 categories of Fla.

Finally, under the command of Filipe Luís, Flamengo is preparing to face Cruzeiro from 8:30 pm (Brasília time), this Thursday (02). Thus, at Maracanã, the 'direct confrontation' will be valid for the 26th round of the Brasileirão.
