This Tuesday (17), Vinícius Júnior was crowned as the best player in the world of the 23/24 season by winning the FIFA The Best award. This achievement also elevates Flamengo to a select group of teams in world football: the list of clubs that have revealed the best in the world.
O Flamengo is only the 16th club in history to reveal an athlete who won the FIFA award since the award was introduced in 1991. There were 34 awards, 17 winners and only one team revealed more than one name that lifted the trophy: Sporting, from Portugal. The club was where Luis Figo and Cristiano Ronaldo began their careers. Furthermore, it is worth highlighting that many athletes have won the award more than once, such as CR7 himself, as well as Ronaldo (3) and Messi (8), for example.
Vini Jr started his career at Flamengo in 2017, when he was just 17 years old. He entered the second half of the match against Atlético-MG, at Maracanã, for the Brasileirão. The star played 50 games and scored 11 goals with Manto Sagrado before moving to Real Madrid. In Spain, he confirmed expectations and became the best player in the world.
The Boy do Ninho was the name of Real's reconstruction after Cristiano Ronaldo's departure. He was one of the team's leaders in the 21/22 Champions League, when he scored the title-winning goal against Liverpool. But it was in 23/24 that he reached his highest level: he won La Liga and the Champions League as a protagonist, with another goal in the final. There were 26 goals and 11 assists in 49 games.
Vini Jr it also makes Brazil return to the main stage of the FIFA awards after 18 years. The last Brazilian to be voted the best in the world by FIFA was Kaká, in 2008.

With Emerson Royal injured and the expectation of De La Cruz's return, Mais Querido faces Colorado in Porto Alegre for the Brasileirão

This Sunday (17), at 6:30 pm (Brasília time) , Mengão visits Internacional at Beira-Rio for the 20th round of the Brazilian Championship Series A. Flamengo arrives at the clash with 40 points in 17 games , occupying the leadership of the competition.
Cruzeiro, with 37 points from 19 matches, is the only team that can get closer in the standings this round . Internacional, meanwhile, has 24 points and sits in 11th place before kick-off. This is a crucial matchup for both teams.
According to the week's training sessions, Flamengo 's likely lineup is: Rossi; Varela, Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira and Ayrton Lucas; Allan, Jorginho and Arrascaeta; Luiz Araújo, Samuel Lino (Cebolinha) and Pedro.
Coach Filipe Luís is expected to make changes to the lineup, as has been common during his tenure. Emerson Royal sprained his left ankle during last Wednesday's game (13) at Maracanã and is unable to play. Varela will be the replacement at right-back and is expected to take over the position.
Another point of concern is De La Cruz's situation. The midfielder has been sidelined since July due to left knee pain , but he's expected to be included on the bench, having traveled south with the Mais Querido team.
After a historic victory in the first leg, Meninas da Gávea play in Barueri with a minimal advantage in search of an unprecedented qualification in the tournament

This Sunday (17), at 10:30 am (Brasília time), Palmeiras and Flamengo face each other at Arena Barueri for the second leg of the quarterfinals of the Brazilian Women's Championship. The match will be broadcast live on TV Globo, Sportv and TV Brasil , as well as in real time on ge.
In the first leg, Flamengo won 3-2, earning their first victory against Palmeiras in women's soccer history. Djeni opened and closed the scoring, while Jucinara scored the second goal for Flamengo. For Flamengo, Tainá Maranhão scored twice. The result gives the Meninas da Gávea the advantage of a draw on aggregate. If Palmeiras recovers the one-goal deficit, the match will go to penalties.
Until the first leg, the teams' head-to-head record showed a clear advantage for Palmeiras, with seven meetings between them, all of which went to Palmeiras. The red-and-black victory at Gávea broke that record and raised expectations for a tight duel in São Paulo.
In addition to a spot in the semifinals, the competition also involves the battle for top scorer. Palmeiras' Amanda Gutierres leads with 15 goals, while Flamengo 's Cristiane is third with nine . Neither of them scored in the first game, but they remain individual standouts.
Mengão will face an important challenge against Colorado at Beira-Rio and wants a victory to remain isolated at the top of the Brazilian Championship.
