Goal scorer, waiter, organizer and reference. Arrascaeta has been all of these things for a Flamengo team that started the 2025 Brasileirão Betano with authority. With five goals scored and three assists in six rounds, the Uruguayan took on creative responsibility and established himself as the main name for the Rubro-Negro in the championship.




Last Sunday, in front of a packed Maracanã, the midfielder shone with a goal and an assist in the 4-0 win over Corinthians. More than the match's stats, it was the way he controlled the game that caught the attention of the coaching staff and fans. According to data from Sofascore, Arrascaeta only needs two shots to score. In addition to his efficiency in finishing, he created four great chances in six games, showing a high level of decision-making and quality in passing.


PEDRO'S RETURN TO FLAMENGO

With Pedro's return in the 3rd round — after six months out due to injury — Flamengo once again formed its most lethal duo. Arrascaeta and Pedro have already directly participated in nine of the team's 15 goals so far, reinforcing the chemistry that has turned them into offensive pillars. The result has been a Flamengo with the best attack in the Brasileirão, with an average of 2.5 goals per game. The routs over Juventude and Corinthians were clear demonstrations of the firepower of the team led by Filipe Luís.


FLAMENGO HAS ARRASCAETA GOAL

Arrascaeta's presence on the field has made a difference not only in terms of numbers, but also in the team's attitude. He has been technically driving the team, taking on a leading role naturally and giving the team rhythm even in tighter games. A key player in Filipe's tactical system, the Uruguayan usually plays freely in the final third, floating between the lines and finding space with vertical passes. With Pedro's good movement and the wingers wide, the number 14 has found the ideal scenario to enhance his game.


Flamengo has won every game in which Arrascaeta has been on the field since the start of the Brasileirão. His absence in the opening match was felt, and the draw against Atlético-GO exposed the team's dependence on his creativity. Internally, there is a consensus: the Uruguayan is experiencing one of his best phases since arriving at the club. His consistency in a sequence of games, his intensity in training and his tactical reading have been praised by Filipe Luís's team.

On Sunday afternoon (14), at 4 pm (Brasília time), Juventude and Flamengo take to the field at the Alfredo Jaconi stadium , in Caxias do Sul, for the 23rd round of the Brazilian Championship . In the previous duel for the competition, Rubro-Negro drew with Grêmio 1-1, at Maracanã, and seeks to find the way to victories away from home.


Due to its relevance, the matchup has even sparked curiosity in the esoteric world. Luiz Filho, a well-known psychic from the YouTube channel "Renascer das Cartas," performed a deck reading for the match. According to him, Juventude " holds the Death card, a powerful card that symbolizes change and strategy, but also highlights potential flaws and mistakes in home plays ."


On the other hand, the team led by Filipe Luís received the "Hanged Man's card." For the seer, this means that the Mais Querido team "will not change its attacking style, but will act more cautiously and will need to work on its emotional side to avoid mistakes."


RECENT RECORDS

In the first round of the Brasileirão, Flamengo thrashed Juventude 6-0. Now, the team from Rio Grande do Sul is looking to maintain its strong record against the Rio de Janeiro team. "Mais Querido" needs a win to remain comfortably at the top of the table.


AND THEN?

After facing Juventude this Sunday (13), Mengão faces Estudiantes for the Copa Libertadores . The match will be valid for the first leg of the quarterfinals of the competition, held at Maracanã.

Palmeiras gave Internacional no chance and won 4-1 this Saturday (13), in a match valid for the Brazilian Championship. The big name of the night was striker Vitor Roque , who scored three goals. With the result, the São Paulo team reaches the same 21 games as the leader Flamengo and puts itself in the fight for the top of the table.


From the opening whistle, Abel Ferreira's team exerted intense pressure and opened the scoring after just three minutes. After a corner kick, Felipe Anderson pounced on the loose ball and passed it to Vitor Roque, who finished with precision past goalkeeper Rochet .


INTENSE PRESSURE AND EFFICIENCY


The home team's dominance continued intensely. In the 23rd minute, a solo play by Flaco López found the ball in the path of Facundo Torres, who found Vitor Roque again to extend the lead . Five minutes later, in the 28th minute, Lucas Evangelista pounced on a rebound from Felipe Anderson's shot following a short corner kick to score the third goal for the Green and Whites.

Before halftime, in the 42nd minute, Vitor Roque shone once again, completing a pass from Gustavo Gómez and scoring Palmeiras' fourth goal, making it 4-0 in the first half. In the second half, with victory virtually assured, Palmeiras slowed down. Internacional, which had produced little up until then, managed to pull one back in the 26th minute.



PALMEIRAS CLOSES TO THE LEAD

With this result, Palmeiras reaches the same 21-game streak as the leader and reinforces its position as the main contender for the title. Vitor Roque's performance boosts the squad's confidence for the rest of the season.
