Flamengo almost left Maracanã with the victory over Vasco. Léo Jardim and the post saved Cruzmaltino this Sunday (15), in the 26th round of the Brazilian Championship. The classic ended in a 1-1 draw and, although Rubro-Negro did not win the three points, they maintained their taboo against their rival.

Flamengo has not lost to Vasco in seven games, adding up the competitions of the Brazilian and Carioca Championships. In total, Rubro-Negro won five times, while the other two clashes ended in draws. In other words, the taboo in favor of Mais Querido remains intact.


FLAMENGO'S GOLE AT VASCO

Flamengo's most significant victory took place this season, at first round of the Brasileirão. On that occasion, Rubro-Negro beat Vasco 6-1, marking the biggest defeat in the history of the classic in the 21st century. Vasco fans even left the stadium before the end of the match.

< b>DRAW THIS SUNDAY

This time, there was no rout from Flamengo, thanks to Léo Jardim's miraculous saves and balls hitting the post from Bruno Henrique and Léo Ortiz. Mais Querido opened the scoring at Maracanã, but Cruzmaltino equalized in the 43rd minute of the second half. As a result, both teams left the field with one point each.

FLAMENGO'S NEXT GAME

Now, Flamengo turns its attention to the duel against Peñarol (URU), on Thursday (19), in the first leg of the Libertadores quarter-finals. The game is scheduled for 7pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã.

Flamengo faces the first leg of the quarter-finals of the Copa Libertadores da América this Thursday. The opponent will be Peñarol from Uruguay and the match will take place at Maracanã, at 7pm (Brasília time). However, the directors participated in a dinner last night (Wednesday).

Directors from Flamengo and Peñarol met at the traditional dinner on the eve of clashes in the Conmebol Libertadores. Rubro-Negro was represented at the meeting by the vice-president of the Presidency's Office and Member of the Football Council, Diogo Lemos, by the vice-president of External Relations, Gony Arruda, and by the executive director of football, Bruno Spindel. 


FLAMENGO WILL HAVE ARRASCAETA AND DE LA CRUZ

In the match against Peñarol, Rubro-Negro will have the return of Arrascaeta in the starting lineup. Fla's number 14 started on the bench against Vasco, but replaced Luiz Araújo, who was injured. Meanwhile, De La Cruz also returns to the starting 11 after recovering from injury. Finally, Gonzalo Plata and Alex Sandro had good performances against Vasco and should be kept for the match.

PEÑAROL ENDS PREPARATION

Just like Flamengo , the Peñarol (URU) squad also finished its preparation this Wednesday (18), focusing on the Libertadores clash. The Uruguayans used Botafogo's CT for the last training session before the game at Maracanã. It is worth noting that Peñarol’s training was “closed doors”. In other words, the press was unable to follow the activities carried out by coach Diego Aguirre.
