Flamengo ‘crushed’ Vasco this Wednesday (21), but won only 1-0, in the third round of the Carioca. After the red-black victory, Rock Hudson, commentator for Coluna do Fla, sent a message to the teams that will face Mengão in 2026.

— 1,153 days, two years and ten months. That’s how long it’s been since Vasco da Gama last beat the Clube de Regatas do Flamengo. That’s the difference, folks, and it’s not just technical. Physically, it’s a professional team against an amateur team. Remember, your team is not PSG (FRA), your team is not Bayern Munich (GER) — he said, before concluding:
— To face this Flamengo, which with just one game in the season and nine days of training, already shows this incredible physical condition, is a problem for any South American team. Your team is not PSG. So get ready, get ready, because the terror of the Brazilian Championship and the South American terror is called Filipe Luís — concluded Rock Hudson, in a video posted on social media.
Flamengo was superior to Vasco throughout the 90 minutes. In the first half, the Rubro-Negro had several chances to open the score, but was stopped by Léo Jardim. In the second half, after Cauã Barros was sent off, Mengão kept dominating and scored the winning goal with Jorge Carrascal.
Yes! Flamengo faced Bayern Munich in the Round of 16 of the Club World Cup, in June 2025. On that occasion, the German team came out on top, winning 4-2. Later in the year, in the final of the World Cup, the Rubro-Negro drew 1-1 with PSG in regular time, but was defeated in the penalty shootout.
Flamengo now returns to the field this Sunday (25) for another state derby. Thus, Filipe Luís’s team will face Fluminense, at 6pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã, for the fourth round of the Carioca.
As tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details about the match between Flamengo and Fluminense, through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, Globo (free-to-air), GE TV (YouTube) and Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the Carioca classic.
