Fluminense comeback kings: Beat Vasco in both derbies after trailing | OneFootball

Fluminense enters the classic against Vasco this Monday with a curious and positive record in 2025: they have won both matches against their rival, and in both, they came from behind on the scoreboard.

In the Campeonato Carioca, the stage was Mané Garrincha in Brasília. Philippe Coutinho opened the scoring for Vasco, but the Tricolor responded authoritatively: Germán Cano equalized, and Thiago Silva, with a header, sealed the comeback with a 2-1 victory.

Months later, in the first round of the Brasileirão, the story repeated itself. Again, the opponent took the lead, but Fluminense kept their composure and turned the game around with goals from Vegetti (own goal) and Guga, in the final moments, securing another 2-1 victory and reinforcing their recent dominance in the classic.

Now, under the command of Luís Zubeldía, the Tricolor seeks another triumph over Vasco, and perhaps to repeat the storyline that has brought them luck in 2025: starting behind but ending the match celebrating with the fans at Maracanã.
