Flamengo entered the field this Saturday afternoon for the Brazilian Championship. Wanting to touch the leader Botafogo, the team led by coach Tite, faced Criciúma, in Brasília, at the Mané Garrincha stadium. Therefore, the red-black team from Rio de Janeiro, despite not playing their best football, managed to win 2-1, with a goal from him, Gabigol, scoring again for the red-black team.
Summary
Criciúma was not intimidated by the difference in the league table and played better than Flamengo in the first half. The team faced a lot of danger from set pieces and took advantage of one of them, with Rodrigo, who opened the scoring in the 34th minute, finishing twice inside the area to score the goal. Flamengo was unable to create good opportunities and saw Criciúma control the actions even with less possession of the ball.
In the second half, the red and black team came back better, even so, far from remembering other games. However, it was enough for the Rio team to have an excellent chance to draw. At 23 minutes, Arrascaeta conceded a penalty, but Pedro ended up taking a bad shot and Gustavo saved it. The penalty made Criciúma liven up the match, but this excitement didn't last long, because Fla reached a draw. This is because at 30 minutes, Viña makes a great pass to Arrascaeta, who plays for Pedro to finish first and tie the game at Mané Garrincha.
After the draw, Flamengo, despite the very bad pitch, was up and at 39 minutes, the referee awarded another penalty in favor of Flamengo. The infraction was marked because Barreto kicked the ball that was not in play at the ball dominated by Cebolinha inside the area. Gabigol went for the ball and with mastery, scored the goal of the red-black comeback.
And now?
With the result , Flamengo is in second place, reaching 34 points and is just two points behind the leader, Botafogo, who is still playing in the round. It's worth remembering that Palmeiras, with 33, also plays this Saturday and could surpass the Rio team.
Flamengo's next opponent is Vitória, also in the Brazilian Championship. The match takes place next Wednesday at 8pm.

São Paulo will have an important reinforcement off the field in the duel against Flamengo, next Saturday (12), for the Brazilian Championship. Hernán Crespo, announced as the team's new coach, had his name published in the CBF's Daily Information Bulletin (BID) this Monday (07) and is free to command the team at Maracanã. The match, valid for the 13th round, is scheduled for 4:30 pm (Brasília time).
The Argentine takes over after the dismissal of Luis Zubeldía, who was dismissed due to his inconsistent performance in the Brasileirão. Even though the team is still in the Libertadores and the Copa do Brasil, the tricolor board understood that the campaign in the national tournament — with only 12 points in 12 games — was insufficient . São Paulo currently occupies 14th place, with two wins, six draws and four losses.
CRESPO MEETS FLAMENGO AGAIN
This will actually be a comeback for Crespo. He already managed São Paulo in 2021, a year in which he faced Flamengo only once — and was defeated with authority . On July 25, Rubro-Negro won 5-1 at Maracanã, with a stellar performance by Bruno Henrique, who scored three goals. Gustavo Henrique and Welington (own goal) also scored, while Arboleda opened the scoring for the visitors.
FLAMENGO LEADS THE CHAMPIONSHIP
The leader of the Brazilian Championship, Flamengo, has 24 points in 11 matches — double the score of São Paulo. Tite's team has won seven games, drawn three and lost only one: to Cruzeiro, away from home, with a penalty goal in second-half injury time. This Saturday's match will be the team's first match after the Club World Cup. The match will be broadcast on Globo (free-to-air TV) and Premiere (pay-per-view).
