Flamengo secured a spot in the quarter-finals of the Campeonato Carioca. This is because the Most Beloved defeated Sampaio Corrêa this Saturday (07) by 7 to 1 and avoided the relegation playoff.
Flamengo started strong against Sampaio Corrêa this Saturday (07)! At 34 seconds into the game, Pedro shot and almost scored. Shortly after, at five minutes, Paquetá shot hard inside the small area, but the goalkeeper made a great save.
Amidst the pressure from Flamengo at Maracanã, a sad scene occurred. This is because the player Alexandre, from Sampaio Corrêa, felt unwell on the field and had to leave the match by ambulance. The good news is that the athlete was already conscious when he left the field.
GOAL FOR FLAMENGO! Pedro received a beautiful pass from Carrascal, dribbled past the Sampaio Corrêa defender, and found the net for Flamengo at Maracanã. 1-0 for the Rubro-Negro!
Another goal for Flamengo! Paquetá made a brilliant pass to Samuel Lino inside the small area. Thus, the left winger passed to Pedro who found the net for the second time at Maracanã! 2-0!
Goal for Sampaio Corrêa! Rodrigo Andrade received a pass from Guilherme in the final minutes of the first half and shot over Andrew. Thus, the first half ended 2-1.
Filipe Luís decided to make some changes right at the beginning of the second half. Pulgar came in for Plata, while Bruno Henrique replaced Pedro. Finally, Carrascal left for Wallace Yan.
And another goal for Flamengo! Bruno Henrique came in for Pedro and, after receiving a pass from Samuel Lino, shot first time into the back of the net. A comfortable victory for the Rubro-Negro at Maracanã! 3-1!
Samuel Lino! The Flamengo striker also took the opportunity to shine at Maracanã. Emerson Royal saw the player inside the small area, passed the ball, and the left winger found the net for the Rubro-Negro. 4-1!
The rout only increases! Cebolinha came in for Paquetá, received a pass from Evertton Araújo, and headed the ball into Sampaio Corrêa's net! 5-1 for Flamengo and a guaranteed qualification!
The sixth goal also came! Douglas Telles stole the ball and passed to Bruno Henrique. The number 27 from Gávea returned it to the homegrown talent, who shot powerfully into the top corner, leaving no chance for Sampaio Corrêa's goalkeeper. 6-1!
