The Morumbi Stadium, known as the home of São Paulo FC, has historically represented a great challenge for Flamengo in the Brazilian Championship. Between 2011 and 2021, the Rio team faced a 10-year streak without winning a single victory at the São Paulo stadium, transforming the place into a kind of "land of nightmares" for the red-black team.
< This situation, however, has started to change in recent years. In the last five matches played for the Brasileirão at Morumbi, Flamengo obtained more positive results, including two wins and a draw. One of these triumphs was especially notable, a 4-0 rout, with a goal from Gabigol just 22 seconds into the game, demonstrating a significant change in the Rio team's performance at the opposing stadium.FLAMENGO HAS A NEW MODEL CAST
This change in performance can be attributed to several factors, including the tactical evolution of the team, the strengthening of the squad and the adaptation to different game conditions. The breaking of this 10-year taboo is an important milestone in Flamengo's trajectory, showing that the team managed to overcome a historic obstacle and now faces Morumbi with renewed confidence.
The sequence of bad results at Morumbi, which lasted for a decade, was a period of frustration for Flamengo and its fans. However, recent victories indicate a new phase, in which the team has managed not only to overcome its historical challenges, but also to impose its style of play and achieve impressive results away from home.
The teams play the first game of the quarterfinals at 7 p.m.
