Decisive figure tilts Fla contest with ruthless left-side display | OneFootball

Samuel Lino opened the scoring in the 11th minute with a right-footed strike from outside the box, setting Flamengo on their way to a 3-0 win over Coritiba at the Maracanã.

He drifted in off the left and rifled low into the bottom corner (11.), establishing control early for the hosts.

His platform grew when Coxa forward Pedro Rocha was sent off (36.), leaving Coxa-Branca exposed down Lino's flank and widening the spaces he attacked.

After the restart he turned provider, squaring for Pedro to finish from close range (60.). Ten minutes later he arrived again at the back post to sweep in from Ayrton Lucas's pass (70.), capping a dominant wide display for Fla.

Lino finished with two goals and one assist, four attempts with three on target, plus 20 successful final third passes from 51 touches, underlining how his movement and passing repeatedly unlocked Mengão's left channel.

Fla visit Chapecoense next. Coxa host Palmeiras next.
