📹 Fla run riot, hit ELEVEN on aggregate and set up Cariocão final with Flu | OneFootball

At Maracanã, Flamengo crushed Madureira 8-0 on Monday (2), in the second leg of the Cariocão 2026 semifinals.

With a 3-0 victory in the first leg, the Rubro-Negro advances to the tournament final with an AGGREGATE score of ELEVEN.

After the disappointment of losing the Recopa Sul-Americana at Maracanã last Thursday (26) against Lanús from Argentina, the crisis hit Ninho do Urubu.

Organized fans went to the training center to demand accountability from the board, technical staff, and the squad, and coach Filipe Luís found himself under pressure from the Nation for the first time in his short and successful career.

Before the match began, around 25,000 fans present at the "Greatest in the World" protested against the team.

But once the ball was rolling, the abyssal technical difference between the squads became evident.

In the first half alone, Flamengo scored four goals, with two from Lucas Paquetá, an own goal by Jean, and another by Pedro, who scored again after almost a month.

To worsen the situation for the Suburban Tricolor, Wallace was sent off.

After the break, Pedro found the net three more times against Madureira, and Samuel Lino completed the rout in the "luxury training session."

Immediately after the final whistle, Flamengo's fans resumed criticizing the players by chanting "Shame, shame, team without shame!"

🚦 What's next

With the qualification, Flamengo will face Fluminense in the final of Cariocão 2026, next Sunday (8), at 6 PM (Brasília time), at Maracanã.

The Rubro-Negro is the team with the most trophies in the tournament with 39 titles, while the Tricolor das Laranjeiras, which was the biggest winner until 2007, has been state champion 33 times.

Since 2020, Flamengo and Fluminense have faced each other in the Cariocão final five times, including last year, with three titles for Flamengo and two for Fluminense.
