🎥 Mirassol make history again after holding champions Flamengo to a draw | OneFootball

Debuting in the elite of the Brasileirão, Mirassol went from being a relegation candidate at the start of the competition to a team guaranteed in the group stage of the 2026 Libertadores.

And they achieved another significant feat this Saturday (6).

Against the champion Flamengo and its alternative team, the Lion of the Interior confirmed an unbeaten campaign at home. Something very rare.

They secured a thrilling 3 x 3 with the Rubro-Negro at Maião.

A match that marked the opening of the 38th and final round of the BR.

Flamengo achieved this feat for the first time in 2019. And repeated it in the last round of this BR.

CRAZY First Half 🔥

It was an open game from the start. Flamengo took the lead at 8', with Douglas Telles taking advantage of a rebound.

Mirassol capitalized on the defensive fragility of their rival on the left side of their attack. And equalized with Chico Kim (13').

The Rubro-Negro went ahead again thanks to a beautiful goal by Guilherme Gomes (31'). And then complained about a penalty on Wallace Yan. 

But the home team went into the break celebrating after Chico Kim set up Alesson in a good position (41'). 

And There Was MORE Excitement

There was no drop in intensity after the break.

The pace remained high at Maião.

Guilherme Gomes scored another (13') after taking advantage of a good Rubro-Negro attack.

Survivor of the Ninho tragedy, Dyogo Alves made a great save at 18'.

But the persistent Mirassol found another equalizer at 19', with Cristian.

The final stretch of the game saw attempts from both sides. 

And Dyogo Alves saving at 50'.
