Flamengo and Fortaleza Duel in the 30th Round of the Brasileirão at Arena Castelão, Ceará

Among all the elements that make up the duel between Flamengo and Fortaleza this Saturday (25th), is the forward Marinho. The winger reunites with the club that allowed him to become a champion of the Libertadores and the Copa do Brasil.

Arena Castelão will be the stage for the reunion between Marinho and Flamengo. The forward wore the Sacred Mantle for two seasons, but before that, he made a great effort to play for the Rubro-Negro.

Father's Dream?

After several requests and publications, Marinho finally managed to transfer to Flamengo. In February 2022, the right winger revealed that it was his father's dream for him to play for the Most Beloved.

— Mr. José will be extremely happy, I couldn't even speak properly with him because he went out telling the neighbors. It's a dream come true for my father and for me too because my entire city supports Flamengo -, Marinho stated at the time.

What Did Marinho Do for Flamengo?

Marinho never became an absolute starter for Flamengo. The forward had only six goals and nine assists for the Rubro-Negro. However, he participated in the victories of the Copa do Brasil and the Libertadores in 2022.

Marinho Negligent?

Marinho refused to travel with Flamengo for a game in Chile, which the club considered as indiscipline. The forward was sidelined, had his contract terminated, and transferred to Fortaleza.

When Does Flamengo Play Again at Maracanã?

With Marinho in Fortaleza's squad, Flamengo plays from 7:30 PM (Brasília time) this Saturday (25th). The match, at Arena Castelão, is valid for the 30th round of the Brasileirão.

As tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will provide the best coverage on the internet, through YouTube, the website, and social media. Thus, Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the Flamengo vs Fortaleza game.
