Flamengo winless at Alfredo Jaconi since Juventude's president worked in IT | OneFootball

28 years ago, Flamengo defeated Juventude 1-0 at Alfredo Jaconi

Flamengo has the opportunity to break a taboo this Sunday (14). That's because, the Most Beloved has not won against Juventude at Alfredo Jaconi since 1997. The match, valid for the 23rd round of the Brasileirão, will start at 4pm (Brasília time). Interestingly, the last time Rubro-Negro came out victorious in Caxias do Sul, the current president of the Gaúcho club, Fábio Pizzamiglio, was a collaborator of the team in the information technology (IT) area.

"I remember as if it were today this game (Flamengo 1 x 0 Juventude in 1997). I lived at Alfredo Jaconi going to games with my father and friends, and I was in the stands with them, as usual with a lot of cold in Caxias," says Fábio Pizzamiglio, Juventude's director.

Pizzamiglio has been the president of Juventude since 2022, but he joined the club in 1996. Over the years, the director transitioned from the IT area to administrative positions and gradually got involved with the team's political issues.

Will the taboo be broken?

Juventude maintains a 28-year unbeaten run at home against Flamengo. However, Rubro-Negro has specialized in breaking taboos since 2019, as it has overcome 16 of them. This year, for example, the Most Beloved defeated Red Bull Bragantino in Bragança Paulista after 29 years.

Where to watch Flamengo x Juventude?

Therefore, the breaking of the taboo could occur this Sunday (14) starting at 4pm (Brasília time), for the 23rd round of the Brasileirão. Thus, complete coverage of the match will be available on Coluna do Fla TV, through YouTube, website and social networks. The streaming service Prime Video will also broadcast the match.
