Flamengo started the game against Fluminense with a great performance in the first half, opening the score with a goal from Arrascaeta. However, the team lost steam in the second half, falling in production and allowing a 1-1 draw, with a goal from Yony González. This result took Flamengo to 57 points, while Palmeiras, with the 3-0 victory over Internacional at Arena Barueri, took the lead with 62 points.

The team led by Abel Ferreira did not disappoint, counting on goals from Zé Rafael, Endrick and Rony to guarantee the victory and provisional leadership. Flamengo, on the other hand, needs to recover lost ground at the next opportunity to keep its hope of winning the title alive. In the fight against relegation, Coritiba achieved a crucial victory by beating Cruzeiro 1-0, with a goal from Robson in the final stretch of the match.

Despite the triumph, the team from Paraná remains in the penultimate position , while Cruzeiro continues to be threatened by the specter of relegation. Furthermore, the round had moments of tension after the match between Coritiba and Cruzeiro, when the Minas Gerais team's fans invaded the pitch, resulting in a widespread fight. These incidents highlight the need for strict measures to guarantee safety in stadiums and avoid situations of this type.

The Brasileirão round continues this Sunday (12), with seven games that promise to move the table even further. Highlights include the clashes between Bragantino and Botafogo in Bragança Paulista, Grêmio against Corinthians in Porto Alegre and Atlético-MG facing Goiás in Belo Horizonte. Additionally, other games include Vasco x América-MG, Santos x São Paulo, Bahia x Athletico -PR and Cuiabá x Fortaleza. Flamengo, in turn, will only have its next match on November 23rd, against Red Bull Bragantino, at Maracanã, in a delayed game of the 30th round.
