Even in the 2-1 Defeat to Bangu, Flamengo Reaches Scoring Milestone This Decade

The 2-1 defeat to Bangu on Wednesday (14th) was painful for Flamengo in the Campeonato Carioca. Even so, however, the Most Beloved reached the milestone of 700 goals this decade, making the club the only one among the Série A teams to achieve this feat.

Midfielder Guilherme is the scorer of the 700th goal for the Rubro-Negro since 2021. That’s because the young player found the net by lobbing Bangu’s goalkeeper Bruno in the 1st round of the Carioca, at Estádio Moça Bonita.

Is Flamengo the Only Team with 700 Goals?

Since 2021, only the Most Beloved has reached the top scorer record, according to R10 Score. In other words, not even Palmeiras and Botafogo, title contenders in recent years, have managed the same success.

The 699th goal scored by Fla also happened in the Carioca, in the early round against Portuguesa. On that occasion, young defender Iago headed the ball in to score at Estádio Raulino de Oliveira.

When is Flamengo’s Next Opportunity to Score?

Flamengo now returns to the field this Saturday (17th) to face Volta Redonda. The match kicks off at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time), at Estádio Raulino de Oliveira, for the 2nd round of the Cariocão.

As tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details about the match through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, SporTV (cable channel) and Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the Rubro-Negro clash.
