In an afternoon of strong emotions at Maracanã, Flamengo won the U20 Intercontinental Cup by defeating Olympiacos 2-1 this Saturday (24). The Rio team, led by coach Filipe Luís, needed to turn the score around after falling behind, but secured the unprecedented title with goals from Caio Garcia and Felipe Teresa.
Olympiacos made a point of highlighting the reception they received had since arriving in Brazil. In the locker room, the Greek club left a message, in Spanish, to thank Mais Querido for the good welcome they received. “Gracias por la hospitality, Olympiacos FC” (thank you for the hospitality).
On social networks, the Greek club made a publication praising the final held at Maracanã, which it treated as a historic stadium. In the post, Olympiacos praised the red and black fans who sang from start to finish for Flamengo and pushed Mais Querido to the title of the international competition.
“Tonight, we saw and experienced a great final against a great opponent in a historic stadium, Maracanã, in Brazil. Our young players performed in front of 40 thousand Flamengo fans who never stopped singing for their team. They put on a display of football, full of passion and a round of Olympiacos magnitude and they are worthy of praise again”, wrote the Greek team.
On the red and black side, the coach Filipe Luís had a lot of praise for Olympiacos. “ As Guardiola would say, it is never easy to attack a team with 5-4-1. We preferred to fill the middle, the advantage was on the outside, but it's difficult to get in. They beat Milan 3-0, Bayern... it's a tactically perfect team. It’s difficult to make chances”, said the World champion.

Flamengo traveled to Rio Grande do Sul to face Grêmio in the 7th round of the U-20 Brasileirão and returned from there with a bitter comeback defeat to the home team. The red-and-black goal was scored by Pedro Leão, still 8 minutes into the first half. Flamengo now provisionally occupies 7th place, with 10 points.
Before the ball started rolling, a tribute to our coach Mauro Felix, who left us this Wednesday (23). The match had a minute of silence dedicated to him, who in 14 years of work at the base, worked with several Garotos do Ninho who today stand out in football.
THE GAME
After the initial whistle, just 10 seconds into the game, there was a scare for Rayan Lucas, who seemed to feel an injury when he first touched the ball and ended up worrying the team, but after receiving treatment, he soon returned to the field. The opponent's first chance to attack came just 5 minutes in, after a dangerous shot that hit the post, almost taking the first zero off the scoreboard for the home team.
However, in the 8th minute, it was the Garotos do Ninho who scored the first goal. After a move on the right side, Shola crossed to the edge of the area and Pedro Leão kicked hard to score his 10th goal of the season for the U-20 team. Leo Nannetti, in the 11th minute, made a great save after a rebound at the edge of the area. The ball went to the opposing striker and the red-and-black goalkeeper prevented what would have been the equalizer.
Flamengo continued its attacking actions and at 21 minutes, in a beautiful play between Shola and Gusttavo, who with a beautiful backheel pass, left the Nigerian in a position but the defense blocked what could have been Mengão's second goal. At 37 minutes, the clearest chance to increase the score: in a counterattack by Flamengo, Lorran had his shot saved by the goalkeeper and on the rebound, the Grêmio defender managed to recover and blocked the shot by Daniel Sales, who was face to face with the open goal.
At 43 minutes, Leo Nannetti appeared again, making a great save after a strong shot, once again preventing the Gaucho team from equalizing.
In the last move of the first half, Shola led a very quick counterattack on the left and after crossing the ball, Gusttavo kicked and the ball capriciously passed by and went out.
In the second half, Flamengo continued to press at the beginning and in the first minute, after an individual play on the right side, Lorran crossed to the edge of the area and Shola tried to finish but the opposing goalkeeper was there to defend.
In the 6th minute, Grêmio scored the equalizer: a play on the right side by Pedro Gabriel passed Daniel Sales, crossed to Jardiel who, alone, headed and scored for Grêmio, equalizing the score.
At 15, Grêmio turned the game around with a great goal from midfield. Number 7 Tiago took advantage of the fact that goalkeeper Leo Nannetti was ahead of the goal and, from the middle of the field, with a rare shot, managed to score Grêmio's second goal.
Flamengo continued to propose plays but without success, and at 25, after a beautiful pass from Lorran, Shola was face to face with the goalkeeper, who managed to make the save.
At 40, the Grêmio goalkeeper once again saved Flamengo's draw after collecting the ball headed by Wallace Yan and at 45, the same Wallace Yan headed the ball onto the crossbar.
The red-black pressure continued, but without success until the end of the game. Now, Flamengo's next commitment in the Brasileirão Sub-20 is against Internacional, at home, next Wednesday (30).

The good result away from home, achieved last week in Belo Horizonte, is the inspiration for the Garotos do Ninho for the seventh round of the Brazilian Under-20 Championship. The team will face Grêmio, this Wednesday (23), at 3 pm, once again away from home, at CT Presidente Hélio Dourado, in Eldorado do Sul, a city in the Metropolitan Region of Porto Alegre. The match will be broadcast, with images, by FlamengoTV.
Rubro-Negro, led by coach Nuno Campos, is in fifth place, with 10 points, three behind leader Juventude. After beating Cruzeiro 1-0 at Toca da Raposa 1, with a goal by Wallace Yan, Flamengo hopes to confirm its good moment and achieve another good result. The team trained on Tuesday morning and will then travel to Porto Alegre, where it will be staying.
It is worth mentioning that the victory over the Minas Gerais team, which until then was leading the Brazilian Under-20 Championship, marked Nuno Campos' debut on the pitch. The Portuguese coach led his first training session on March 25 and since then Flamengo has won two games, drawn one and lost once.
Flamengo continues to have some absences due to medical issues. Goalkeeper Lucas Furtado, defender Carbone, midfielder Pablo Lúcio, and forward Felipe Teresa, who were unavailable in the previous round, remain out of the squad to face Grêmio. Defender João Victor, midfielder João Alves and forward Joshua are among the players who traveled with the professional team for the match between LDU and Flamengo, for the Libertadores, in Quito.
