Vasco count on Flamengo to stay clear of the Brasileirão drop zone | OneFootball

A Flamengo Defeat Puts Vasco in the Relegation Zone

Vasco is in Flamengo's 'hands'. This is because the team led by coach Fernando Diniz was defeated 3-2 by Corinthians on Sunday (24), at São Januário, in the 21st round of the Brasileirão. Given the result, Vasco fans are rooting for Flamengo, who play against Vitória on Monday (25).

This is because the defeat left Vasco in 16th place, with 19 points, one more than Vitória. The northeastern team is the first in the relegation zone, and therefore, a win over Flamengo would cause Vasco to lose their position and enter the Z-4.

What's the Scenario?

Can Anyone Else Harm Vasco?

Vasco is also keeping an eye on the result between Juventude and Botafogo on Sunday (25), at 6:30 pm, at Alfredo Jaconi. The southern team has 18 points, so a Botafogo defeat could put Vasco in the relegation zone.

How Was the Defeat?

Even at home, Vasco did not have a good performance. Maycon opened the scoring for Corinthians in the first half. In the second half, Vegetti equalized, while Gui Negão put the Paulistas ahead again and Gustavo Henrique extended the lead. Rayan reduced the score for the São Januário team.

When is Flamengo's Game?

It is worth noting that Flamengo takes to the field on Monday (25). At Maracanã, the Mais Querido faces Vitória, also in the 21st round of the Brasileirão. The rubro-negro duel will take place from 9 pm (Brasília time), with transmission from SporTV (closed channel) and Premiere (pay-per-view).
