On Thursday night (16), Flamengoand Madureira drew 1-1 at Estádio Amigão, in a match valid for the second round of the Carioca Championship. The result left Mais Querido far from the top places in the table, still without a victory in the tournament. The opening minutes were about study between the teams, with little offensive aggression.
O Madureira tried a safe shot against Dyogo Alves' goal, while Mengão had his first opportunity only in the 17th minute, with Carlinhos finishing flawlessly for his opponent. At 20, Thiaguinho wasted another chance after receiving a cross alone in the area.
Corners AND DIVIDED CHANCES
The game remained balanced for the rest of the first half. Flamengotried to threaten Madureira's goal, but had difficulty creating clear plays. The home team responded with greater emphasis on corners, achieving three opportunities compared to just one for Rubro-Negro. At the half-time whistle, the score remained zero, reflecting a truncated duel. Mengão accumulated four shots against the opponent's six, maintaining the atmosphere of uncertainty at the Amigão Stadium.
FANS BECOMES IMPATIENT
On the way back from the break, the Flamengo showed greater organization on the field. Early on, Lorran had a great chance when he shot from the edge of the area, but the opposing goalkeeper saved it safely. Then, Daniel Sales made a good move down the wing and crossed for Carlinhos, who again failed to finish with precision.
Flamengo's goal finally came in the 16th minute. In a mess inside the small area of Madureira, Thiaguinho took the opportunity to find the back of the net, putting Mais Querido ahead on the scoreboard. Despite the goal conceded, Madureira maintained the pressure and managed to snatch a draw in the final minutes. Marcelo, in an opportunistic move, overcame Flamengo's defense and left everything the same. The score of 1 to 1 was sealed at Amigão, generating dissatisfaction among the red and black fans present at the stadium.

Flamengo is ready to face Internacional this Wednesday (13), at Maracanã , for the first leg of the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores. Coach Filipe Luís confirmed the entry of Luiz Araújo in place of Arrascaeta, who is suspended, and promoted the return of Jorginho to the starting lineup.
Without the Uruguayan number 10, the red-black team will take to the field with: Rossi; Royal, Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira and Alex Sandro; Jorginho, Allan; Luiz Araújo, Plata, Samuel Lino and Pedro.
The main new addition is Jorginho, who returns after serving a suspension in the Brasileirão victory over Mirassol. Arrascaeta, on the other hand, is out due to an accumulation of yellow cards in the continental competition.
In addition to Arrascaeta, Flamengo will be without Erick Pulgar (right foot surgery), De La Cruz (left knee injury), and Danilo (right thigh injury). The final roster could still be surprising, as Filipe Luís has opted for strategic cuts due to the excess players on the roster.
The match between Flamengo and Internacional is scheduled for 9:30 pm (Brasília time), with live broadcast on Rede Globo, on open TV, and on Disney+, via streaming. The return duel takes place next Wednesday (20), at Beira-Rio, in Porto Alegre.

Flamengo's own stadium project gained direct participation from Companhia Carioca de Parcerias e Investimentos (CCPAR) in the preliminary agreement signed between the club, the Rio de Janeiro City Hall, and Caixa Econômica Federal. Specializing in concessions and partnerships, the municipal public company will be responsible for investing R$29.2 million, approximately 15% of the R$199.6 million earmarked for the Gasômetro land acquisition.
The amount will be allocated as financial compensation to Caixa, the former owner of the space through the Porto Maravilha Real Estate Investment Fund , which was expropriated by the City for the auction that resulted in Flamengo 's purchase. This information is from GE.
Flamengo will receive the majority of the amount: R$170 million . This amount includes the R$138 million already paid in the 2023 auction, plus R$7.9 million for the judicial investigation, and an additional R$23.6 million, which will be paid in five installments.
Despite progress in negotiations, the project still faces obstacles. Removing the gas pipelines and clearing the land remain the responsibility of the City Hall . Governor Cláudio Castro assured the website 'MundoBola Flamengo' that the municipality is committed to these steps.
At Flamengo, the topic is being treated cautiously. The Deliberative Council is preparing to discuss ways to secure the necessary resources without compromising the institution's financial health . Contrary to what had been reported, the topic of the new stadium did not come up at the last CoDe meeting.
