This last Monday (9), the CBF released the table for the Copa do Brasil under-20. Flamengo will debut on October 2nd, against Porto Vitória-ES, in a unique clash. As it has the best position in the ranking, Mais Querido will be the host of the duel, which does not yet have a defined date and time.

The winner of Flamengo x Porto Vitória will face the qualifier of Vasco x Goiás in the round of 16. Thus, it is possible that the "Classic of Millions" will be in the first knockout stage. The two teams qualified for the tournament due to their performance in the 2023 State Championship. The Cruzmaltino team won the cup, while Rubro-Negro finished in second place.

REGULATIONS BRAZIL CUP U-20< /b>

If Flamengo and Porto Vitória end in a draw, the team for the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil will be decided by penalties. Even though he is world, Brasileirão and Libertadores champion, Mais Querido never lifted the national competition trophy.

TITLE CHANCES FOR FILIPE LUÍS

The national knockout stage will be another opportunity of Filipe Luís winning another title as coach of Mais Querido. To date, the coach has won an under-17 Rio Cup and the under-20 Club World Cup, against Vasco and Olympiacos (GRE), respectively.

However, before thinking about the Brazil Cup, Mais Querido's squad focuses on the Carioca quarterfinals. Next Saturday (14), Rubro-Negro will host Nova Iguaçu, in Gávea, in a return match from the knockout stage. Flamengo has a two-goal advantage.
