In recent years, Flamengohas shown a solid performance in the Copa do Brasil, reinforcing its position as one of the main clubs in Brazilian football. In 34 games played in the tournament, the team achieved 23 wins, 6 draws and suffered only 5 defeats. These numbers translate to a 73.5% success rate, a statistic that demonstrates the club's consistency in knockout competitions.
Flamengo's attack was also one of the highlights of this campaign. Over the course of these games, the team scored 55 goals, an average of 1.61 goals per match. The offensive capacity, driven by great players, has been an essential factor in the club's success. Furthermore, the team managed to create 77 great scoring chances, a clear indication of how they can be incisive in attack and generate real opportunities to score.
A BREATHTAKING CAST
In defense, the numbers are equally impressive. Flamengo conceded just 18 goals in these 34 games, which represents an average of just 0.52 goals conceded per game. This defensive solidity can be attributed to a combination of good tactical organization, experienced players in the defensive sector and a game system that favors possession of the ball, limiting the opponents' chances.
In addition, Flamengo allowed just 22 big chances for opponents, a number that reflects how difficult it is for rival teams to create clear scoring opportunities against their team. This defensive control is fundamental to the team's strategy in knockout competitions, where small details can make all the difference.
Mengão stands out in the Championship not only because it is at the top of the competition, but also because it has outstanding numbers in all phases of the game.

Flamengo opened the scoring against Juventude this Sunday (14), at the Alfredo Jaconi Stadium, in Caxias do Sul, for the Brazilian Championship. Despite controlling possession, the team had not yet created clear chances until a play on the left changed the course of the first half.
Galvão Bueno on Saúl's assist in the Juventude vs Flamengo match: "He doesn't make a cross, he passes it to Arrascaeta's head"
Samuel Lino accelerated down the left wing and found space to cross into the box. Spaniard Saúl Ñíguez, with great technique, delivered a precise pass to Arrascaeta's head , who rose through the opposing defense and finished firmly: 1-0 to Flamengo .
During the Prime Video broadcast, the commentator was full of praise for the play and, especially, for the Spanish midfielder: "All it takes is one space for this Flamengo team to be unmarked, and this happens. And this guy, Saúl, knows how to play football! He doesn't just cross, he passes it to Arrascaeta, who times the ball perfectly and gets between the defenders to score," extolled Galvão Bueno.
After the 2-0 win, Filipe Luís stated in a press conference that Saúl's performance could be "the best of his career." The Spaniard, however, disagreed and reflected on his experience in Brazil.
"I don't think so. I've had some really good moments in terms of everything, but right now I feel really good mentally . I'm lucky to have my family with me, accompanying me on this adventure. I know it's not easy for them, because I go out to train, spend time with my teammates, and enjoy what I do, but for those who are by our side, it's different. It's not easy to leave our country or any place. They do it for us, and I'm very grateful for that," said the number 8.
