It is important to note that, before the next match, Flamengo will have at least three training sessions. On Sunday (26), before the clash with Atlético-MG, the Rubro-Negro squad may have what has become the traditional “activation session.”

How did Flamengo’s win go?

Flamengo were the better side against Vitória from the start. Even so, the Most Beloved had a scare, as the Bahia side had a goal disallowed and could have ended the match level at 2-2. Despite that, the game finished 2-1 for the Most Beloved, with goals from Evertton Araújo and Pedro.

What now?

Now, Flamengo turn their attention back to the Brazilian Championship. This Sunday (26), Rubro-Negro face Atlético-MG in the 13th round of the Brasileirão. The match will take place at Arena MRV, in Belo Horizonte, starting at 8:30 p.m. (Brasília time).
