Both teams now have one point and remain winless in the championship.

Lucas Paquetá started for the first time since returning to Flamengo but had few standout moments.

He ended up making a mistake that led to Inter's goal, missing the pass that initiated the counterattack finished by Borré.

At the final whistle, the Flamengo fans protested at Maracanã, shouting for more effort.


The Game

As expected, Flamengo dominated the ball for most of the time.

The Rubro-Negro appeared more in the attacking field but had difficulties threatening the goal defended by Rochet.

The best opportunities of the initial stage came from Arrascaeta and Paquetá.

The Uruguayan's shot was blocked at the last moment by Vitor Gabriel, while the Brazilian was stopped by Inter's goalkeeper.

It was Colorado who showed more efficiency, opening the scoring in the first half's added time.

In a counterattack involving Ronaldo, Alan Patrick, and Carbonero, the play was coolly finished by Borré.

The Colombian dribbled past Leo Ortiz and, face to face with Rossi, scored.

The first goal chance of the second half came in less than 15 seconds with a shot from Carbonero that Rossi saved well.

In the rest of the final stage, however, Inter focused on defending and posed little threat.

Despite also not creating many goal opportunities, Flamengo managed to equalize.

In a lapse by Bernabei, he stepped on his compatriot Varela's foot, and the referee awarded a penalty. See the play below:

Arrascaeta took the penalty and leveled the score.
