Leonardo Jardim and team-mates hail Bruno Henrique after Flamengo beat Corinthians | OneFootball

Bruno Henrique was the standout as Flamengo beat Corinthians in the Brasileirão at the Maracanã on Sunday, 13. According to Coluna Do Fla, a Flamengo TV video showed team-mates in raptures at full-time, with Leonardo Jardim embracing the number 27.

His goal came in the final minutes of the second half. Joaquín Freitas crossed from the left and found him in the box, and the forward headed beyond goalkeeper Hugo Souza.

The win was Flamengo’s fifth in a row of the 2026 season and kept them top on 57 points, one ahead of Palmeiras.

With Bruno Henrique available, Flamengo face Independiente del Valle (EQU) at the Maracanã on Thursday, 17, in the Libertadores quarter-final second leg, kick-off 21:30 Brasília time.

They lead 2-0 from the first leg in Quito, so can afford to lose by one goal and still reach the semi-finals. A defeat by two goals or more would take the tie to penalties.
