Flamengo conquered a 2-1 victory over Botafogo at the Nilton Santos stadium, on Saturday night. The scoreboard included an own goal by Marlon Freitas and a great goal by Bruno Henrique, while Victor Sá scored the discount goal for Botafogo. With this result, Flamengo managed to break the undefeated sequence of the leader of the Brazilian Championship in their home games.
After a beautiful goal, Bruno Henrique revealed that he had committed to scoring in honor of Gabigol, who was celebrating his birthday that week. The "King of Classics" also addressed the "chororô" gesture when celebrating after swinging the nets, a gesture that was also repeated by the number 10.
- I told him (Gabigol) that I was going score a goal and was going to honor him. I'm not the first to score a goal against Botafogo and do the "chororô". Nothing in the mood for confusion. I have a lot of respect for the Botafogo institution. What I did here, stays here, and doesn't go abroad, because everything you do has a huge impact. I respect you a lot and stay on the field. We are all friends.
This Sunday morning, Gabigol reciprocated the affection he received from BH27, and on social media he was succinct when talking about his partner: ''He. Bruno Henrique Pinto. The man.''. It is worth remembering that the number 10 was only on the bench in the classic, but he celebrated the great goal of his eternal attacking partner.
The next match of Rubro Negro will be after the stop for Data Fifa. The game will be valid for the 23rd round of the Brazilian Championship and will be against Athletico - PR on September 13th, Wednesday, at 9:30 pm, in Cariacica.

Flamengo takes to the field this Sunday (5), at 6:30 pm (Brasília time), to face Bahia at Arena Fonte Nova, for the 27th round of the Brazilian Championship. However, in addition to the concern about the result, Filipe Luís' team needs to manage the risk of important suspensions for the next match, against Botafogo.
The main name among those suspended is Arrascaeta, Flamengo 's technical standout this season and a key player in the red-and-black formation . The Uruguayan will need to act cautiously to avoid receiving a third yellow card.
Another player under scrutiny is Colombian Carrascal , who also has two cards and could be out if he receives another warning. Rounding out the list is midfielder Allan, who divides opinion among fans, who is the third player at risk of suspension.
In addition to the available trio, midfielder Erick Pulgar is also suspended, although he remains out due to injury . The Chilean is recovering from a fractured fifth metatarsal in his right foot and has no confirmed return date yet.
Of the suspended players, only Arrascaeta is expected to start. Flamengo 's likely starting lineup for the match in Salvador is: Rossi; Varela (Royal), Danilo, Léo Ortiz, and Ayrton Lucas; De la Cruz, Jorginho, and Arrascaeta; Plata (Carrascal), Samuel Lino (Cebolinha), and Pedro .
After the clash at Fonte Nova, Flamengo returns to the field on Wednesday (15) to face Botafogo, at 7:30 pm, at Nilton Santos Stadium (Engenhão) . With three athletes at risk of suspension, Filipe Luís must guide the squad to act with discipline to avoid absences in the classic.

This Sunday (5), at 6:30 pm (Brasília time), Flamengo faces Bahia , at Arena Fonte Nova, for the 27th round of the Brazilian Championship. Despite Tricolor being the third best home team in the competition, the historical record and tactical analysis indicate promising paths for Filipe Luís' team to seek the three points away from home.
Coach Filipe Luís should send onto the field a Flamengo team with: Rossi; Varela, Léo Ortiz, Danilo and Ayrton Lucas; De La Cruz (Allan), Jorginho and Arrascaeta; Plata (Carrascal), Samuel Lino (Everton Cebolinha) and Pedro (Bruno Henrique).
On the other side, Rogério Ceni's Bahia faces a series of absences, 12 in total, and will need to find alternatives to form the team. The likely starting lineup includes: Ronaldo; Gilberto, David Duarte (Fredi), Rezende, and Zé Guilherme; Acevedo, Jean Lucas, and Everton Ribeiro; Kayky, Iago Borduchi (Michel Araujo, Tiago, or Cauly), and Willian José.
Flamengo's recent record gives them confidence. Since 2006, in 11 matches under Bahia, the Red-Blacks have won six (55%), drawn two, and lost three . Their dominance has been heightened in recent matches: in the last seven matches, they have won five, drawn one, and lost only one. This record reinforces the Red-Black Nation's optimism for another decisive round in the fight for the Brasileirão title.
