Flamengo and Botafogo Play the Quarterfinals of the Campeonato Carioca on Sunday (15)


The nickname 'King of Classics' is no coincidence. This is because Bruno Henrique often scores against Flamengo's rivals. This Sunday (15), for example, the forward could become the most active nemesis of Botafogo, with seven goals against the black and white team.

After all, if BH 27 scores a goal, the red-and-black winger will tie with Hernán Barcos with eight goals against the opponent. Thus, both will be the biggest nightmares in action for the team that plays at Engenhão.

Who Are the Biggest Active Nemeses of Botafogo?

  • Hernán Barcos = 7 games and 8 goals
  • Bruno Henrique = 17 games and 7 goals
  • Paolo Guerrero = 14 games and 6 goals

As a point of interest, Barcos reached these numbers against Botafogo when he was a player for Grêmio and later for Palmeiras. The average is striking because in four of the seven matches, the striker scored two goals in each game.

But Is Botafogo the Biggest Victim of Bruno Henrique's Career?

Despite being the King of Classics, the main target in the career of the Flamengo idol is Athletico-PR, with 13 goals against the Paraná team. Following that, the number 27 has 11 goals against Vasco.
