After a disappointing 0-0 draw in regular time, Flamengo won the 2026 Carioca by beating Fluminense 5-4 on penalties.

AgustĂ­n Rossi made the difference in goal for the Rubro-Negro to claim the State Championship for the 40th time in its history in front of nearly 70,000 fans.

He made two saves in the shootout to deliver his side the trophy.

It's Flamengo's third consecutive title after winning in 2024 and 2025, and a debut with a trophy for Leonardo Jardim.

And relief for the Rubro-Negro after frustrations in the Supercopa and Recopa.
