Flamengo was coming off a streak of two important victories in the Brazilian Championship, against Botafogo and Palmeiras, respectively. However, this Saturday (25), Mengão was defeated by Fortaleza, the second-to-last team in the Brasileirão, by 1-0.
With this negative result, Flamengo has now lost 12 points against teams from the lower part of the Brasileirão table. Besides Fortaleza, Mengão also lost to Santos, and drew against Ceará, Vasco, and Grêmio.
*The positions correspond to the clubs' standings in the respective rounds.
It’s worth noting that Flamengo still has five matches against teams from the lower part of the Brasileirão table. Thus, Filipe Luís’s team will face: Sport (twice), Santos, Red Bull Bragantino, and Ceará.
At this moment, Flamengo remains in second place in the Brazilian Championship, with 61 points. In addition, Filipe Luís’s team has 18 wins, seven draws, and four losses. Meanwhile, Palmeiras remains at the top with the same number of points as Mengão, but holds the advantage in the tiebreaker criteria.
Flamengo now ‘turns the page’ and begins preparations to face Racing (ARG) this Wednesday (29). Furthermore, the match will take place at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time), at Estádio Presidente Perón, for the second leg of the Libertadores semifinal.
As tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will provide the best coverage on the internet, through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, Globo (broadcast TV) and GE TV (YouTube) will broadcast the Flamengo vs. Racing match.
