The third round of the Campeonato Carioca featured a notable dominance of Flamengo over Vasco on Wednesday (21). Thus, the former player Felipe Melo, idol of Fluminense, stated that the trend is for the Rubro-Negro to dominate even more. In a social media post, the now commentator was incredulous with the performance of Mengão in the classic.
— Flamengo seemed like it was in the tenth game of the season. This is because it wasn't even a team considered to be the 11 starters, but the team is very strong. They know how to play -, highlighted Felipe Melo to add that:
— Vitão has been at Flamengo for how long? Plays a lot, right? And I also can't fail to praise Léo Jardim. I'm going to sleep now. I promise. Léo Jardim. If it weren't for Léo Jardim, it would have been about four -, stated the former midfielder in a post on Instagram.
The statistics show that the Most Beloved shot towards the target 12 times, while the opponent did not make any shots. The match at Maracanã, however, ended only 1-0. This is because the opposing goalkeeper made at least four difficult saves.
However, Carrascal hit a beautiful volley in the second half of the main team's debut. In the first three games, the Rubro-Negro was represented by the under-20 team, which had two losses and one draw.
With the main team available, Flamengo returns to the field this Sunday (25) to face Fluminense. Moreover, the classic takes place starting at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at Maracanã, for the fourth round of the Carioca.
Thus, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details of the Fla-Flu through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, Globo (open channel), GE TV (YouTube) and Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the classic.
