In recent years, São Paulo stopped being a thorn in the side and started seeing Flamengo bother them. Rubro-Negro puts the São Paulo team in its rightful place, bringing sovereignty to the confrontation. Since 2021, in the last 11 games, Mais Querido has had great numbers in the match and has had few disappointments.
Before, the other defeat to São Paulo in the period came in a decision. It was on the way, in the Maracanã game, but Mengo were defeated 1-0. The good news is that both defeats were by the minimum score, and if you pay attention, the team can take advantage of the good phase to extend their good recent record .
To give you an idea, Mengo scored 22 goals in 11 games. In other words, a high average of 2 goals per match, with thrashings in 2021. The São Paulo team, in turn, only scored eight goals, a very noticeable and considerable difference.
Last victory at MorumBis had Gabigol and Cebolinha deciding
Flamengo has already played at São Paulo's home on two other occasions, but did not win, drawing a game that gave the 2023 Copa do Brasil title to the paulistas and losing a Brasileirão match. But the stadium also holds good memories, like when the club started the São Paulo elimination from the Copa do Brasil in 2022.
The team confirmed its classification in the return, winning 1-0, but the big game it was the one on the way. This is because Flamengo crushed São Paulo and the score of 3-1 was cheap for the São Paulo team. The club still had young midfielder João Gomes, who opened the scoring by scoring a great goal in the match.
Flamengo and São Paulo face each other again
The teams will meet again in Brasileirão 2024. Flamengo visits São Paulo on Saturday night (3), at 9:30 pm (Brasília time). Rubro-Negro seeks to remain in the lead, opening up an advantage over Botafogo and Palmeiras.
Mengão has one game less and the same 40 points as its black and white rival. Therefore, it is crucial to continue winning to be able to distance themselves from their opponents.
The moments are different, and Flamengo tries to take advantage. The team comes from three consecutive victories, two in the Brasileirão and one in the Copa do Brasil, but against Palmeiras. São Paulo lost twice in a row in the Brasileirão and even won the last game, in the Copa do Brasil, but against the fragile Goiás at MorumBis.

Flamengo said goodbye to the Women's Copa do Brasil after losing 1-0 to São Paulo, this Wednesday (17), at Morumbis. The Rio de Janeiro team even tried to react after falling behind on the scoreboard, but was unable to avoid elimination in the single duel of the round of 16. The decisive goal was scored by Duda Serrana, a standout for the São Paulo team.
In the first half, São Paulo dominated possession and adopted a more attacking approach , hindering Flamengo 's play. Flamengo struggled to exchange passes and impose their style. Even so, the visitors had the best chance of the first half: on a quick counterattack in the 30th minute, Duda had a good opportunity but shot wide.
Early in the second half, a poor clearance by the Flamengo defense resulted in the game-clinching goal. The defense poorly cleared the ball, and Duda Serrana fired a precise shot from outside the box, leaving Flamengo's goalkeeper with no chance . From then on, the Rio de Janeiro team pushed forward and sought to press in the final minutes, relying primarily on set pieces and crosses, but failed to create any real chances.
With this result, Flamengo ends its Women's Copa do Brasil campaign with one win and one loss. The team received approximately R$90,000 for its participation in the round of 16. After the final whistle, members of the Flamengo coaching staff complained about the refereeing in the center of the field, but the result remained unchanged.
Flamengo could take to the field with a different formation to face Estudiantes this Thursday (18), at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), for the CONMEBOL Libertadores. The duel, decisive for the club's ambitions in the continental competition, will be broadcast live on Disney+.

Flamengo beat Juventude 2-0 last Sunday (14), at Alfredo Jaconi, for the Brazilian Championship, and ended a 28-year winless streak in Caxias do Sul. Arrascaeta opened the scoring and Emerson Royal closed the score, scoring his first goal for the club .
Emerson Royal reveals Filipe Luís's request at Flamengo: "Filipe wants me to be sharp, exploring my physical strength"
After the match, the full-back revealed a conversation with coach Filipe Luís, who advised him on attacking positioning: "I received criticism when I played injured because I couldn't give my best. But I wanted to stay on the field to help Flamengo . Filipe explained to me what he wanted from me: to get to the far post. I even asked my teammates to watch me during that movement," Royal said.
It was the full-back's first game since returning from injury. Royal had sprained his left ankle on August 13 against Internacional in the Copa Libertadores. Since then, he had only played a few minutes in the draw with Grêmio at Maracanã.
According to the player, Filipe Luís asked him to play differently than he was used to in his career: "At Tottenham, I played as a defensive midfielder, on the inside. But Filipe wants me to be sharp, exploiting my physical strength, passing, and crossing. He knows my ability to support, and that can really help the team ."
Signed in July for €9 million (approximately R$58 million) from Milan, Emerson Royal is competing for a spot with Varela, who was rested against Juventude due to a groin injury. " Big teams are like that; they always have top-notch players . Varela has a lot of quality, and so do I. The competition is healthy, we work hard, and the choice is Filipe's," said the full-back.
On Thursday (18), Flamengo faces Estudiantes in the Libertadores (quarter-finals, first leg), at 9:30 pm, at Maracanã . The Most Beloved only returns to the field for the Brasileirão on Sunday (21), against Vasco, also at the sacred temple.
