Flamengo's impressive run of games without defeat at Maracanã came to an end this Thursday -Friday (11). In front of 57,517 spectators present at the stadium, the team led by Tite was defeated by Fortaleza 2-1, in a match valid for the 16th round of the Brazilian Championship.
Flamengo < /b>hadn't lost at Maracanã for two months, totaling 74 days of unbeaten streak. The team's last defeat at the stadium occurred on April 28, when Rubro-Negro was beaten 2-0 by Botafogo. Since then, in the following ten games, Flamengo achieved nine wins and one draw, in competitions such as the Brazilian Championship, the Libertadores and the Copa do Brasil.
With the defeat to Fortaleza, Flamengo remained with 31 points. Furthermore, after accumulating the second game without a win, the red-black team fell to third place in the table. This result is due to the fact that Palmeiras beat Atlético-GO 3-1, and Botafogo beat Vitória, both clubs reaching 33 points.
INTENSIFIED TRAINING
After the negative result at Maracanã, the Flamengo team will not have an immediate break. This Friday (12), coach Tite began preparations for the next match of the season.

Military Police reject Cruz-Maltino's request for the game to be held at the stadium, with or without a single crowd; Board will evaluate next steps

The classic between Vasco and Flamengo will not be at São Januário . In an official statement, this Thursday (3), the Specialized Battalion for Policing in Stadiums (BEPE) refused the request of Cruz-Maltino for the game to be at the stadium. The entity, after all, alleges "security risks on the perimeter and inside the sports square" .
The decision was made based on the unit's strategic analyses that point to security risks.
"The SEPM Press Office informs that the command of the Specialized Battalion for Policing in Stadiums (BEPE) opposed the request of the Clube de Regatas Vasco da Gama for the next classic between Vasco and Flamengo, scheduled for April 19, to be held at the São Januário Stadium. The decision was made based on the unit's strategic analyses that point to security risks on the perimeter and inside the sports arena in games of this nature" , says the statement.
Now, Vasco needs to decide where to host the classic match on April 19th. The CBF regulations prohibit the match from being transferred to another state, since the request for this must be made at least 20 days in advance. In addition, Nilton Santos will host a musical event on the same day and will not be able to host the match. A likely location would be Raulino de Oliveira, in Volta Redonda .
LAST MEETING BETWEEN THE TEAMS AT CRUZMALTINO STADIUM
It is worth remembering that the last match between the teams at São Januário, in 2017, ended in chaos. Flamengo won the match 1-0, and Vasco fans threw bombs and objects at the red-and-black players, who were unable to access the tunnel. There was also an attempt to invade the field and a confrontation with the Military Police.
Since then, the only derby at the stadium took place in 2020 without the presence of fans. The Cruzmaltino adopted the same stance in the Campeonato Carioca, when it took the first game of the semifinal to Engenhão, which Mais Querido won 1-0.
Even with absences, the red-black coach takes to the field the same base that faced Internacional at Maracanã, for the Brasileirão
