Flamengo closed September with a 2-1 win over Red Bull Bragantino in the 28th round of the Brasileirão, sealing a 88.8% return from six matches.

According to Coluna Do Fla, the FIFA international window brings a 16-day pause, running from 21 September to 6 October, so the team next play Santos at Vila Belmiro on 8 October at 19:30 Brasília time.

The month opened with a 2-0 defeat of Mirassol at the Maracanã, then a 1-0 victory over Remo at the Mangueirão as momentum built in the league.

On continental duty, Flamengo won 2-0 at Independiente del Valle in Quito at altitude in the first leg of the Libertadores quarter-final, before edging Corinthians 2-1 back at the Maracanã.

A 1-1 draw with Independiente del Valle in the return secured a semi-final spot, and the month finished with another league win at the Maracanã. In September Flamengo scored 10 and conceded three, winning five times and drawing once.

They sit top of the Brasileirão on 60 points, three clear of Palmeiras on 57.
