Flamengo tease Vasco on social media: "Someone wants to be..." | OneFootball

Vasco made a social media post imitating Flamengo, which 'retaliated'

The current champion of the Copa do Brasil, Flamengo bid farewell to the current edition in the round of 16, against Atlético-MG. On the other hand, Vasco, the historical rival of the Most Beloved, continues in the competition and used social media with phrases inspired by Fla.

Flamengo, of course, didn't waste time and provoked Vasco on social media: “I don't know if you noticed, but someone wants to be me,” said the Tweet from the Most Beloved, on X (formerly Twitter). The response came after the rival made a post with the words: “For us. For ours. For Vasco.”

However, Flamengo, for many years, has used the phrase: “Us. For us. For ours. Always”, as a 'cry' of unity and support for the club. With this, now, the Carioca rival was inspired by the Most Beloved for the continuation of the 2025 season, catching the attention of the red-black fans.

How is Flamengo's season going?

Currently, Flamengo remains at the top of the Brasileirão with a certain advantage. This is because the Most Beloved has 47 points. On the other hand, Vasco is close to the relegation zone, in 15th place, with 22 points, trying to avoid what could be its fourth relegation (and sixth year playing in Série B).

Moreover, unlike Vasco, which didn't even play in the Libertadores of America this year, Flamengo is still very much alive in the continental competition. Still in September, the Most Beloved faces Estudiantes de La Plata (ARG), in the quarterfinals of the South American tournament.

Additionally, at the beginning of the season, Flamengo won two tournaments against other Carioca rivals. First, Fla claimed the Supercopa do Brasil title against Botafogo, then the Campeonato Carioca over Fluminense.

What's next for Fla?

Now, Flamengo returns to the field on Sunday (14), when they face Juventude, for the 23rd round of the Campeonato Brasileiro. Thus, the teams will clash starting at 4 PM (Brasília time), at Alfredo Jaconi Stadium, in Caxias do Sul.
