Flamengo to decide Copa do Brasil 5th round away at Vitória | OneFootball

Flamengo will play the first match at Maracanã and the second at Barradão

At an event held at the headquarters of the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) in Rio de Janeiro this Monday (23), the matchups and home/away arrangements for the fifth phase of the Copa do Brasil were determined. Thus, it was decided that Flamengo will face Vitória, with the first leg at Maracanã and the return leg at Barradão.

As determined by the draw, Flamengo will play at home first, between April 22 and 23. The return match, away from home, is scheduled to take place on May 14. The match times will still be announced and confirmed by the CBF.

How much will the CBF award clubs for qualifying to the next phase of the Copa do Brasil?

The teams that qualify for the round of 16 of this year's Copa do Brasil will be awarded the sum of R$ 3 million. As in previous editions, the away goals rule will not be used as a tiebreaker. Therefore, if the aggregate score is tied, the decision will go to penalties.

Flamengo seeks its sixth Copa do Brasil title

Currently, Flamengo has five Copa do Brasil titles. Therefore, the Rubro-Negro will compete in the tournament this season in pursuit of their sixth trophy. Recently, o Mais Querido lifted the national tournament trophy twice, in 2022 and 2024.

What is Flamengo's next match?

Flamengo will now have some time to rest until their next match due to the FIFA International Break. The Rubro-Negro will return to the field only on April 2, against Red Bull Bragantino, away from home, for the ninth round of the Campeonato Brasileiro. The match is scheduled for 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time).
