The game
The match started off quite studiously with the teams trying to gain possession of the ball. The opening minutes were win-lose in the midfield sector. Little by little, Meninas da Gávea managed to control the ball more and advanced to the attack. Until at 15', Mengão opened the scoring! Mariana made a good move on the right of the area and crossed the ball. The goalkeeper threw the ball to the side and Pimenta only completed it into the net: 1 to 0.
Flamengo increased the score in the 26th minute. Mariana made a great play in the middle and gave a precise shot for Duda Rodrigues to hit the goalkeeper to score the second red-black goal: 2-0. The first half ended with a good advantage for Mengão. This score gives the classification for the Gávea team, as the first game ended in a 1-1 draw, in the Luso-Brasileiro.
On the way back After the break, the game continued with a lot of competition in midfield. At seven minutes, Internacional had a penalty in their favor. Analuyza took the penalty and Isa Cruz shone when he saved the penalty.

With the opening of the transfer window this Thursday (10), Flamengo is moving both in the main squad and in the base. One of the names that entered the market radar was the Nigerian striker Shola, a highlight of the red-black under-20. Volta Redonda, second-to-last in Series B, sent a loan proposal for the player, but Mais Querido refused .
Despite recognizing that experience on a professional team could be valuable, the board opted to keep the striker. The main reason is the U-20 Club World Cup , in which Flamengo will face Barcelona (ESP) on August 23rd at the Maracanã. Information about Volta Redonda's interest was reported by 'BTS Sports'.
SHOLA HAS A VICTORIOUS HISTORY AND HAS ALREADY PLAYED FOR THE PROFESSIONAL LEAGUE
With a distinguished record in the youth ranks—including a World Cup title and two U-20 Libertadores titles—Shola has five appearances for Flamengo 's senior team. Four of these were in 2025, during the Campeonato Carioca , when the team used an alternative formation. His debut came in the 2024 Brasileirão, against Atlético-MG.
If loaned out, Shola would arrive at Volta Redonda with the mission of helping the team escape the relegation zone in Série B. The team has just 14 points in 15 rounds — three wins, five draws, and seven losses — and sits in 19th place, ahead only of Amazonas on goal difference.
SHOLA'S NEXT GAME WILL BE IN THE U-20S
With the loan ruled out, at least for now, Shola remains available for the under-20 team. He is expected to start this Thursday (10), at 6 pm (Brasília time), against Botafogo, in the Luso-Brasileiro, in a game valid for the penultimate round of the Brasileirão in the category . The match also marks the debut of coach Bruno Pivetti. Flamengo will have reinforcements from the professional squad: Matheus Gonçalves, Lorran, João Victor, Léo Nannetti and Joshua.

Called up after standing out in Flamengo's youth teams , young Davi Fraga was one of Brazil's top scorers in the group stage of the Copa 2 de Julho, where Canarinho ended its participation this Saturday (5). In a rout over Dom Macedo-BA, the Ninho player scored.
This was the fifth goal scored by Davi Fraga, a Flamengo product, in four matches in the tournament. Before scoring against Dom Macedo, the youngster scored three against Jacobina-BA and another against Seleção Scout-BOL.
MATCH SUMMARY
Brazil qualified for the next phase of the Copa 2 de Julho after thrashing Dom Macedo . The Canarinho opened the scoring by Henrique Lemos (Cruzeiro), son of right back Fágner. Also in the first half, Alexsander (Grêmio) increased the score.
However, Brazil only increased the pace in the second half. Right at the beginning of the second half, Davi Fraga shone, in addition to Jean Carlos (Fluminense) and Myguel (Red Bull Bragantino) who also scored their goals. In addition, Dom Macedo scored an own goal.
BRAZIL WAITS FOR NEXT OPPONENT
Brazil had a good campaign in the first phase of the tournament, with 12 points won in four games and the leadership of the group secured. Thus, Canarinho will return to the field only on Tuesday (8), for the round of 16 of the Copa 2 de Julho. The opponent will still be announced by the competition's organizers.

Being a champion is good. At the opponent's home ground, after seven years, it's even better! Flamengo beat Fluminense 3-2 on penalties and became the Rio de Janeiro champion in the under-15 category , at the Marcelo Vieira Stadium, in Xerém. After winning 3-2 at Gávea, Rubro-Negro was defeated 2-1 by Tricolor, this Sunday (6), resulting in a tie on aggregate. José Eduardo scored the decisive penalty and started the party.
SUMMARY
Needing to win, Fluminense started the match trying to occupy the attacking field and had a chance with a free kick early on. The ball went to the right of goalkeeper Alessandro. The opponent had more volume, but most of the plays were balls thrown into the area. A free kick from the left hit the crossbar in the 19th minute.
Shortly after, at 22 minutes, Tricolor ended up scoring the first goal, precisely from a rebound after a cross from the left, taken advantage of by Crystian Gabriel. The red-and-black team, which had difficulty imposing its game, improved after conceding the goal and started to create a few more chances. It was Fluminense, however, that came very close to extending the lead shortly before the end of the first half. The defense was unable to clear the ball and Alessandro saved a point-blank shot from the opposing striker.
Early in the second half, Fla made a good play with Leonardo Gabriel, who came down the right, crossed and the defense cleared. On the counterattack, penalty for Fluminense, who scored the second in the 2nd minute, with Ryan Santos. Guilherme missed a great opportunity to reduce the deficit with a header, right after.
The opponent continued to play better and could have increased the lead in the 6th minute. Two minutes later, Rubro-Negro finally scored the first goal. Samuel Julio headed the ball accurately after a corner kick by Thomas Robson. Fluminense had another dangerous attack in the 17th minute, while Fla's response came in the 19th minute, with a shot over the top by José Eduardo.
Most of the plays were concentrated in the midfield . The red-blacks were unable to complete their attacks and Fluminense even managed to score twice, but goalkeeper Alessandro made the save with ease. As Fla had won the first game 3-2, the 2-1 defeat took the title decision to penalties.
IN PENALTIES
In the penalty shootout, Lucas Guedes, Leonardo Gabriel and Zé Eduardo scored the goals for Mengão. Goalkeeper Alessandro saved Lucas Santos' shot and the victory went to the Garotos do Ninho. They are champions!!!
