The last Flamengo player to score at World Cups was Arrascaeta

Flamengo has nine players at the 2026 World Cup. If any of these players manage to score in the tournament, they will join a select group of eight players who have found the net at World Cups while representing the Most Beloved. The exception is Arrascaeta, who is already on the list after scoring twice in 2022.

WHO HAS SCORED GOALS AT WORLD CUPS WHILE BEING A FLAMENGO PLAYER, AFTER ALL?

Flamengo’s top scorer at World Cups is Leônidas da Silva. A Brazil forward at the 1938 World Cup, the ‘Black Diamond’ scored an impressive seven goals in just four matches. Right behind him is the greatest idol in Flamengo history: Zico. The Little Rooster scored five goals across the 1978, 1982 and 1986 World Cups.

WHERE ARE THE BRAZILIANS?

Flamengo players have not scored goals for Brazil at the World Cup in this century. Of the three goals in the ‘2000s Era,’ all were scored by foreigners. Paolo Guerrero found the net for Peru in 2018 while playing for Mengão, and Arrascaeta scored two in 2022.

WHO CAN HELP FLAMENGO ADD TO THE LIST AT THE WORLD CUP?

For Brazil, Lucas Paquetá, Danilo, Léo Pereira and Alex Sandro are trying to break the ‘century-long taboo’ for Flamengo in our national team. In addition, the foreign players are also chasing a spot on the select list of the Most Beloved’s World Cup scorers.

Uruguay has Arrascaeta, De La Cruz and Varela. Ecuador, meanwhile, is counting on Gonzalo Plata to score. Finally, Colombia has midfielder Jorge Carrascal in the squad. Coluna do Fla, of course, will be keeping an eye on all the Flamengo players involved in the tournament.
