This Saturday (14), the under-20 team from Flamengo, led by Filipe Luís, secured qualification for the semi-finals of the Campeonato Carioca. After winning the first leg, 2-0, Mengão was surpassed by Nova Iguaçu, 1-0, advancing on aggregate.

With the good advantage built, coach Filipe Luís opted to put a Flamengo's mixed team for the duel in Gávea. However, the scorers of the goals that won the U20 World Cup, Caio Garcia and Felipe Teresa, started among the 11.


The Boys from the Nest who started the match: Barone; Daniel Sales, João Victor, Felipe Vieira, Carbone; Rayan Lucas, Fabiano, Caio Garcia (C), Rafael Couto; Guilherme, Felipe Teresa.


First Half

After opening 2-0 in the first match, Flamengo started the second match in a lower rotation. As a result, needing to reverse the adverse result, Nova Iguaçu took advantage of the spaces to pose a threat to the red-black goal. The first good chance of the match came from the Baixada team, just after five minutes, but goalkeeper Barone made a spectacular save to prevent the opponent's goal.


The game seemed quite truncated after the move, with plays forced and fouls that broke the rhythm of the match. At 25 minutes, due to the strong heat in Rio de Janeiro, the teams went to a technical stop. And coach Filipe Luís took the opportunity to give instructions to Flamengo, who came back with a different attitude.

Rubro-Negro demonstrated more objectivity after the short break. When Daniel Sales was raised in the area, Carbone had the two best chances of the match, but stopped at the opposing goalkeeper and the crossbar. The left-back went up to head the ball and deflected it, but the Nova Iguaçu archer made a great save. In the remainder, Shirt 6 had the chance to score, inside the small area, but hit the crossbar.

The game became more open, and Barone had to work again, making two important saves in a row. After that, the pace decreased again, culminating in the teams going to half-time without goals.

Second Half

Team's top scorer of the season , Wallace Yan replaced Fabiano after the break. The game resumed with the same cadence. Little objectivity and Flamengo waiting for time to pass. But Nova Iguaçu, needing to score 3 goals to qualify, showed more attention to the match.

In the 15th minute, after pressing for the ball, Mengão's right-back, Daniel Sales, ended up losing the ball. possession. The low-lying team took advantage and, with a deflection, after a cross kick, opened the scoring. Filipe Luís quickly changed the team, placing Jean Lima and Victor Silva in the places of Caio Garcia and Rafael Couto.

Still with a good advantage, Filipe Luís' team continued to manage the match, trying some more incisive plays, but without much success. Felipe Lima replaced the world title hero, Felipe Teresa, looking to give more impetus to the attack.

Filipe Luís also made one last move, replacing Thiago Medeiros with Rayan Lucas, but it did not prevent the defeat red-black. Even so, the Boys from the Ninho advance in the competition, seeking the title they haven't won since 2019.

Boa Vista and Botafogo face off, also this Saturday morning, to define Flamengo U20's opponent in the semi-finals.
