Flamengo defeated Madureira 3-0 this Sunday (22), in the first leg of the Carioca semifinal. In addition to the solid victory, the Most Beloved achieved a rare feat in 2026: leaving the field without conceding a goal.
The last time Flamengo finished a match without conceding was against Vasco, in January, in the first match of the professional squad that season. On that occasion, the Most Beloved won the classic 1-0.
Since then, Flamengo has played eight matches and conceded in all of them, especially in the Supercopa do Brasil against Corinthians, and in the Recopa, against Lanús (ARG).
In the match against Lanús, Flamengo needs to win by two goals to claim the Recopa. Therefore, the Most Beloved also cannot concede goals so as not to jeopardize their chances against the Argentine team.
The match between Flamengo and Lanús is scheduled for 9:30 PM (Brasília time) this Thursday (26), at Maracanã, for the second leg of the Recopa Sudamericana. ESPN, on cable, and Disney+, via streaming, will broadcast the clash.
