Pedro’s elastico or Arrascaeta’s stunner? Fans pick Flamengo’s top August goal | OneFootball

Goals by Flamengo’s Top Scorers Battled for Fans’ Preference on Social Media

Flamengo had a remarkable August with great results. There were six wins and two draws, a performance that took the team to the top of the Brasileirão and secured a spot in the quarterfinals of the Libertadores. Besides this great phase, the team scored beautiful goals, and the fans chose which one was the most beautiful of the month.

The fans voted on ‘X’, formerly Twitter, and picked Pedro’s stunning goal against Vitória, in the 8-0 thrashing, as the most beautiful of August. In the Campeonato Brasileiro match, the number 9 scored a hat-trick. However, the play that most delighted the Nation was the goal where Pedro pulled off an “elástico” dribble on his opponent and then chipped the goalkeeper with a ‘cavadinha’.

SEE THE RESULT:

Pedro’s goal won the poll with 88% of the votes. Additionally, second place was also a goal from the historic rout against Vitória: the third of the match, scored by Arrascaeta. The number 10 scored a true stunner by hitting it first time, giving the goalkeeper no chance, and received 6.4% of the votes.

Finally, another goal by Arrascaeta, scored in the 1-1 draw with Grêmio, received 3.3% of the fans’ votes. Meanwhile, Pedro earned 2.4% of the votes with another beautiful goal, this time against Internacional, after a precise pass from Varela.

WHEN DOES FLAMENGO PLAY AGAIN?

September brings a new chance for Flamengo’s top scorers to increase their goal tally and thrill the fans. With the calendar paused for the FIFA break, the red-and-black team returns to the field only on the 14th (Sunday), when they face Juventude at Estádio Alfredo Jaconi, for the 23rd round of the Brasileirão. That’s why the Nation has a special invitation to follow all the details of Mengão’s matches on social media, YouTube and the Coluna do Fla website.
