Flamengo only managed a 1-1 draw with Grêmio this Sunday (31), in the 22nd round of the Brazilian Championship. Despite the result, the red-black fans showed up in full force at the Maracanã and made history once again. This is because the Nation broke the Brazilian football attendance record in 2025 once more.
The match between Flamengo and Grêmio had 64.4 thousand paying spectators at the Maracanã and a total attendance of 69.4 thousand people. Thus, Mengo broke its own attendance record in Brazilian football. It's worth noting that the previous best mark of the season was in the 0-0 draw in the Fla-Flu match, during the second game of the Carioca final, with 64.3 thousand paying spectators, also at the 'Sacred Temple'.
Even with the draw against Grêmio, Flamengo remains the isolated leader of the Brazilian Championship, with 47 points. In this interim, Filipe Luís's team has 14 wins, five draws, and two losses. Following closely, in second place, is Cruzeiro, with 44 points, and one more game played compared to the Most Beloved.
Furthermore, Palmeiras remains in third place on the table after a draw with Corinthians. Abel Ferreira's team reached 43 points in the Brasileirão and is four points behind Flamengo. However, it is worth mentioning that Mengão and the São Paulo club have postponed games to fulfill in the national championship.
Flamengo returns to the field for the Brasileirão only on September 14 (Sunday). On that occasion, Filipe Luís's team will face Juventude at 4 p.m. (Brasília time), at Alfredo Jaconi, for the 23rd round of the tournament.
