The end of the season is approaching and Flamengo has just five games left to finish its commitments in 2023. So far, Rubro-Negro boasts a 60% success rate. Given this scenario, Coluna do Fla prepared an analysis of Mais Querido's performance throughout the year. In total, Flamengo participated in 71 clashes in 2023, distributed between the Club World Cup, the Recopa Sul-Americana, the Libertadores, the Brasileirão, the Copa do Brasil, the Supercopa do Brasil and the Campeonato Carioca.
In this period, the team won 38 victories, drew on 15 occasions and suffered 18 defeats. This trajectory culminated in a 60% success rate. Furthermore, Mengo found the net 119 times, conceding 75 goals: Club World Cup: 2 games, 1 win and 1 defeat Recopa Sul-Americana: 2 games, 1 win and 1 loss Libertadores: 8 games, 4 wins, 2 defeats and 2 draws Brasileirão: 33 games, 16 wins, 8 defeats and 9 draws Copa do Brasil: 10 games, 6 wins, 2 losses and 2 draws Supercopa do Brasil: 1 game and 1 defeat Campeonato Carioca: 15 games, 10 wins, 3 defeats and 2 draws.

Despite 60% success, Flamengo did not win any title in 2023. However, Mais Querido keeps alive the hope of lifting the cup in this edition of the Brasileirão. This is due to the fact that, even with one game less, the team has a difference of five points in relation to the current leader, Palmeiras. However, Flamengo's main focus in the Brasileirão is to secure a direct place in the next edition of the Libertadores.

 Currently occupying sixth place in the Brazilian Championship table, With 57 points, Mengo needs to finish the competition among the top four to achieve this goal. Flamengo will begin its last five matches of the season facing Red Bull Bragantino on November 23, in a game postponed from the 30th round of the Brasileirão. The match will take place at Maracanã, with the start scheduled for 9:30 pm, Brasília time.

With a total of 71 clashes in 2023, distributed between the Club World Cup, the Recopa Sul-Americana, the Libertadores, the Brasileirão, the Copa do Brasil, the Supercopa do Brasil and the Campeonato Carioca, Flamengo accumulated 38 wins, 15 draws and 18 defeats. This performance culminated in a 60% success rate. Furthermore, Mengo left its mark on the opponent's net on 119 occasions, while its defense was leaked on 75.
