Flamengo hits back after Palmeiras chief Leila Pereira's remarks | OneFootball

What message did Flamengo send on social media?

Palmeiras apparently just can’t get Flamengo out of their minds. Amid so many controversies, this time it was Leila Pereira, president of the São Paulo club, who ‘went after’ Bap, the president of Mengão. Faced with that situation, the Rubro-Negro did not miss the chance to subtly take a jab at their Brazilian rival.

“Always good to remember: ‘Danilo’s goal’ made a lot of people cry and left them speechless”, said Flamengo in a social media post. In addition to the phrase, the club’s official profile shared a video in which he appears emotional after the final whistle of the match between Mengão and Palmeiras in the final of the 2025 Libertadores, in Lima, Peru.

Because of that, whenever they have the chance, Leila Pereira, along with coach Abel Ferreira, like to ‘attack’ and talk about moments that happened in the final in Lima.
