Flamengo Secures Qualification for the Next Stage and Eliminates Opponent's Chances to Advance

A positive outcome for Flamengo's youth categories this Wednesday (17th). In the morning, the Flamengo under-20 team defeated Nova Iguaçu 1-0 in the Campeonato Carioca. In the afternoon, by the same score, the under-17 boys won 1-0 against São Paulo in the Brasileirão. Both matches took place in Gávea.

With the under-17 result, Flamengo moved closer to qualifying for the quarter-finals of the Brasileirão. Now, the Rubro-Negro is in fourth place with 34 points, with one round remaining in the qualification phase. It's important to note that eight teams advance, and the ninth, Fluminense, has 32. In other words, Mengão is close to securing a spot.

On the other hand, São Paulo is in 12th place with 26 points and no longer has a chance to reach the eighth position. This is because Vasco, which holds the spot, already has 32 points and cannot be overtaken by the Morumbi club in the last round of the Brasileirão Under-17.

HOW WAS THE MATCH BETWEEN FLAMENGO AND SÃO PAULO?

With the reinforcement of Ryan Roberto, who already has minutes with the under-20 and even training with the professional team, Flamengo had total control of the game. Just one minute in, the winger took a corner, and João Vítor capitalized to open the scoring and set the final numbers for the match.

WHEN WILL THE DECISIVE ROUND BE?

Flamengo fights to seal their qualification for the quarter-finals of the Brasileirão Under-17 next Tuesday (23rd). The last round will be against Corinthians, at Parque São Jorge, at 3 PM (Brasília time). The match is also decisive for the opponent, who has 32 points and is in seventh place.
