Flamengo entered the field with the clear mission of winning by at least two goals to stay alive in the competition. The plan was aggressive from the start, with high marking and quick transitions. Just 9 minutes in, the strategy paid off: Lorran led a fast counterattack and left Rafael Couto in a great position. Bill was face to face with goalkeeper Gabriel Felix, but was stopped by the tricolor's good defense.
Fluminense then showed efficiency. Júlio Fidelis crossed from the right, and Keven Samuel appeared well in the area to open the scoring for the home team. The goal slowed down Flamengo's pace, who felt the blow and saw their rival manage the advantage intelligently.
Still in the first half, Rubro-Negro had another opportunity in the 37th minute . Lorran found Bill in good condition again , but once again the striker did not take advantage. In the 43rd minute, the number 11 had another clear chance, but Gabriel Felix made another great save. In injury time, Wanderson received a good pass on the right, crossed into the area, but no one was able to finish.
The first half ended with Flamengo on top, but without converting their superiority into a goal. The second half began like the first: Flamengo pressing. Lorran took a dangerous free kick in the first few minutes, forcing another save from the tricolor goalkeeper.
However, in one of Fluminense's few attempts, Dohmann took a long-range shot and took advantage of a mistake by the red-black goalkeeper to make it 2-0, further increasing the aggregate advantage, now 3-0 for Tricolor. Flamengo's response was not long in coming. In the 13th minute, Jorge Mora made a good play on the left and found Lorran inside the area. The number 10 finished with class to reduce the deficit: 2-1 in the game, 3-1 on aggregate.

Flamengo beat Internacional 1-0 in the first leg of the Copa Libertadores round of 16, at Maracanã , and now only needs a draw to guarantee a place in the quarterfinals. The return duel takes place this Wednesday (20), at 9:30 pm, at Beira-Rio stadium, in Porto Alegre . For the match, tarot reader Luís Filho, from the channel “Renascer das Cartas”, indicated that Mais Querido appears as the favorite to advance to the next phase.
According to the psychic, Internacional should find good opportunities throughout the 90 minutes , even playing away from home. The prediction suggests the team will have more balance, as well as strength from the bench to determine the classification. However, Luís Filho emphasized that Internacional must be cautious against counterattacks, as, in pursuit of a result, Internacional can open up important spaces for the opponent to exploit.
The tarot reader emphasized that the match should be evenly matched, with chances for both sides. He believes a draw isn't ruled out , but the Rubro-Negro team is likely to have a better chance of securing another victory and securing a spot in the quarterfinals. The outcome, he said, will be decided in detail.
In the first leg of the round of 16, Flamengo won 1-0, with a goal from Bruno Henrique. On that occasion, Filipe Luís' team did not have Arrascaeta, suspended for the third yellow card. Last Sunday (17), in the Brasileirão , the teams faced each other again at Beira-Rio, and Flamengo again came out on top, winning 3-1 . Now, the clubs compete for a direct spot in the next phase of the continental tournament.

Flamengo returns to the field this Wednesday (20) to face Internacional, at Beira-Rio, for the second leg of the round of 16 of the Libertadores . Rubro-Negro arrives with an advantage after winning the first game 1-0, at Maracanã, with a goal from Bruno Henrique, who once again confirms his reputation as the “king of the knockouts”.
Bruno Henrique has 20 goals in the competition, making him Flamengo 's third-highest scorer in the tournament, behind only Gabigol and Pedro . Of these, 12 were scored in the knockout stages, along with four crucial assists. This means that the number 27 has directly contributed to 16 goals in the Copa Libertadores knockout stages.
In the first match, played at Maracanã, Flamengo won 1-0, with a goal from Bruno Henrique. With this result, Filipe Luís's team can even draw at Beira-Rio and still secure a spot in the quarterfinals.
The number 27 is available to Filipe Luís for the final. Although historically a standout on the left side of the attack, Bruno Henrique has been used as a center forward , competing with Pedro for a spot in the starting lineup.
Flamengo faces Internacional this Wednesday (20), at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), at Beira-Rio, in Porto Alegre, for the second leg of the round of 16 of the Libertadores . In case of defeat of Mengão by one goal, the decision will go to a penalty shootout.

Sunderland beat West Ham 3-0 last Saturday (16) at the Stadium of Light, in the opening round of the Premier League. On the London side, Lucas Paquetá, a Flamengo product, tried to take on the role of main articulator, but was unable to avoid defeat. With his future still uncertain , coach Graham Potter continues to treat the Brazilian as a key player for the season, according to information from journalist Fabrizio Romano .
Fabrizio Romano on the former Flamengo player: "Graham Potter made clear to West Ham his desire to keep Lucas Paquetá"
The statement contrasts with the news published by the same journalist on Friday (15), that the number 10 was evaluating proposals to leave the club during this window. Romano even published: "Graham Potter made clear to West Ham his desire to keep Lucas Paquetá. The coach also spoke with the player, who has been considering proposals for weeks , but has the coach's full confidence."
At the club since 2022, Paquetá has a contract until 2026 and is considered the most technical player in midfield, with the versatility to play as a defensive midfielder, attacking midfielder, or even on the wings. In 2023, he was a target of Manchester City, receiving public praise from Pep Guardiola . Talks progressed but cooled after allegations of betting manipulation.
During the investigation, the former Flamengo player was overlooked by Fernando Diniz, Dorival Júnior, and Carlo Ancelotti, who chose not to call him up . Even so, they all emphasized that the player remains a high-level option for the national team.
Despite being acquitted by the Football Association (FA) of match-fixing charges, Paquetá was found guilty of failing to cooperate with the proceedings by refusing to provide requested information. His sentence has not yet been determined, but he is expected to receive a fine, which may or may not be paid by West Ham, but there is no chance of a suspension.
