Supporters of Flamengo shared a video on social media about Filipe Luís at Maracanã this Wednesday (11), during the match against Cruzeiro. However, the footage is not real, and the former red-black coach was not present at the stadium.
According to a report by Coluna do Fla, the video shared by a profile is actually old footage. At the time, the former red-black coach was still with the U-17 team and went to Maracanãzinho to watch the basketball team, in 2024.
Filipe Luís was dismissed from Flamengo on March 3, after the match against Madureira, in the semifinal of the Campeonato Carioca. The coach even took part in the press conference and, at 1 a.m. (Brasília time), his departure was announced.
Flamengo hired Leonardo Jardim to replace Filipe Luís, and the Portuguese coach remains undefeated with the red-black team. First, he drew with Fluminense and won the Campeonato Carioca. Soon after, he beat Cruzeiro 2-0 at Maracanã, in the Brasileirão.
Thus, Flamengo, led by Leonardo Jardim, remains focused on the Campeonato Brasileiro and the upcoming challenges. O Mais Querido faces Botafogo on Saturday (14), at 8:30 p.m. (Brasília time), at Estádio Nilton Santos, for the sixth round.
