Change of day aiming to optimize logistics for Libertadores games
|
The Clube de Regatas do Flamengo (CRF) is seeking to change the date of the second leg of the Carioca Championship final. According to information obtained by Gabriel Orphao, members of Flamengo's board of directors wish to transfer the clash from Sunday, April 7th, to Saturday, April 6th.
According to a close source to the club, the reason behind this request is the need to optimize logistics for the Copa Libertadores de América matches. With the possibility of important games in the continental competition, Flamengo intends to adjust the calendar to ensure more efficient planning for its next disputes.
WILL IT BE PLAYED ON THE CURRENT DATE?The decision changing the date of the Carioca Championship final has generated discussions between those involved, including the Football Federation of the State of Rio de Janeiro (FERJ) and the opponent in the final. So far, no information has been released about the official position of the federation or the other participating club in relation to Flamengo's proposal.
It is still unclear whether the date change will be viable and whether it will be accepted by all parties involved . The final of the Campeonato Carioca is one of the most anticipated events on the Rio football calendar and any significant change could have an impact not only on the fans, but also on the organization of the event and the logistics of the clubs involved.

Fans of Flamengo and other interested parties eagerly await more information about this possible change, which could significantly influence the outcome of this year's Carioca Championship.

The Sinergia Rubro-Negra Group (SRN), made up of influential partners from Flamengo, held a meeting last Saturday (7), at the club's headquarters, located in Gávea. The main objective of the meeting was to promote fraternization among the participants, but, inevitably, club politics ended up dominating the discussions throughout the event.
The main topic that emerged during the meeting was the support of the SRN to Rodrigo Dunshee's candidacy for president of Flamengo. Dunshee, who currently holds the position of general and legal vice-president of the club, is a prominent figure in the red-black political scene. The group, made up of members who share an aligned vision regarding the club's management, sees in Dunshee a name prepared to take over Flamengo's leadership, especially considering the upcoming electoral cycle.
During the event, members of the SRN highlighted Dunshee's role in the current administration, remembering that he was a fundamental player in several legal achievements of the Flamengo in recent years. The group believes that his experience and proximity to the club's internal processes make him the ideal candidate to succeed current president Rodolfo Landim, whose tenure ends at the end of his term.
Although the initial objective of the meeting was a celebration between the partners, it was inevitable that the conversations turned to Flamengo's political future. The club's presidential elections are approaching, and political groups are already beginning to articulate support and strategies. The SRN, being a strong group within the red-black political structure, has stood out for its organization and capacity to mobilize members.
Those present discussed, among other topics, the possible implications of a possible Dunshee's candidacy. His name has been circulating among members for some time, but now, with the explicit support of the SRN, his candidacy is gaining strength. The members highlighted that Dunshee is a name of continuity, someone who is already part of the current management and deeply knows the challenges and needs of the club. This, in the group's view, represents a positive point, as Dunshee could continue the projects started under the Landim administration.
The club has been in a race against time

Flamengo continues to debate whether to look for a replacement for Pedro, a striker who is recovering from an injury. The decision is complex, involving several variables ranging from the financial cost to the availability of players on the market. One of the main points under discussion is the high cost of a possible replacement. The club is aware that signing a center forward may require a significant investment, something that needs to be carefully evaluated within the team's current budget.
In addition, Flamengofaces the challenge of downtime of players available on the market. Many of the center forwards who are free for transfer come from long periods without playing, with recent injuries or prolonged absence from the field. This situation represents a risk, as the integration of a player who is not in the rhythm of the game may take longer and be less effective initially.
The club is also considering the limited number of viable options on the market. The scarcity of attackers who meet the criteria required by Flamengo – both in terms of quality and physical readiness – is a factor that further complicates the search for a suitable replacement.
In this scenario, the management of Flamengo assesses whether signing a new player is the best solution or whether there are viable alternatives to deal with Pedro's absence, such as adjusting the tactical formation or promoting youth players. The final decision is still being studied, and the club needs to carefully consider all aspects before making a decision.
As the end of the championship approaches, tension and expectations only increase

Potentially, the Flamengo is one step away from achieving a historic feat in Rio de Janeiro football. The red and black team has a unique opportunity before them: to become the greatest undefeated champion of the Carioca Championship. With an already enviable CV, the club has the chance to add yet another milestone to its centuries-old history.
Since its founding in 1895, Flamengo has been a dominant force in Brazilian football, collecting trophies and admirers throughout over the years. With six undefeated titles in the Carioca Championship, the club already stands out among the biggest in the region. However, the possibility of achieving a seventh title without defeat would be an unprecedented feat.
To understand the magnitude of this possible achievement, it is important to analyze the club's history and its trajectory in the competition. Since its last undefeated victory in 2017, Flamengo has remained one of the strongest teams in the country, with significant victories in several competitions. With a talented squad and an experienced coach at the helm, the Rio team has demonstrated a remarkable performance in the current championship.
However, the journey towards the undefeated title has not been easy. Throughout the season, Flamengo faced challenges and worthy opponents, testing their ability to overcome and determination. Each match played was a battle, demanding maximum concentration and skill from the players.
The red and black fans, always faithful and passionate, have closely followed each move and each goal, cheering with the victories and suffering from draws. The fans' unconditional support has been extra fuel for the players on the field, propelling the team towards glory.
