Flamengo made light work of Atlético-MG and thrashed them 4-0 this Sunday (26), in the 13th round of the Brasileirão. With a dominant display, the Rubro-Negro confirmed its strength at Arena MRV and extended its unbeaten run at the rival team’s stadium.
Since the inauguration of Arena MRV, Flamengo has remained unbeaten at the venue, with four wins and one draw against Atlético-MG. As a result, the Rio de Janeiro side has reached an 86.6% success rate in matches played in Belo Horizonte.
That extreme efficiency ensured they built the scoreline authoritatively this Sunday (26), even though the team did not enjoy wide possession in certain periods. In that way, the rubro-negro side turned its favorable record into yet another emphatic away performance.
The positive record began in July 2024, when Flamengo won 4-2 in the Brasileirão. Months later, they beat the Minas Gerais side 1-0 and secured the Copa do Brasil title inside Arena MRV.
Then in 2025, they again won 1-0 in the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil (despite being eliminated on penalties) and drew 1-1 in the Brasileirão. Now, in 2026, the Rubro-Negro took another step in that dominance by handing out a 4-0 thrashing.
After the rout in the Brasileirão, Flamengo now turns its attention to the Libertadores. On Wednesday (29), the team coached by Leonardo Jardim faces Estudiantes (ARG) in the third round of the continental tournament’s group stage. Kickoff is at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at Jorge Luis Hirschi Stadium, with on-site coverage from Coluna do Fla.
