Flamengo won the Guanabara Cup, the first round of the Carioca Championship, by beating Madureira 3-0 in this Saturday, at Maracanã. Pedro, Arrascaeta and Léo Pereira were responsible for the goals. After the game, coach Tite praised the team's performance and achievement.
- It's difficult for us to get from the beginning until now, but I'll take Arrascaeta's speech before our prayer. The trophy was there for our prayer and he said it was deserved. It's having this joy and that it is energy for us to return to work so that we can be better. Arrascaeta says little, but with a lot of content. It's the same idea I have.
TITE PROJECTS AN EVEN BETTER FUTURE WITH FLAMENGO
Flamengo lost the seven cups it played for in the 2023 season. Now, it has won the first which entered in 2024. Tite sees and values the conquest of the Guanabara Cup in a symbolic way.
- It is difficult to measure these aspects. What I can say is the satisfaction of developing the work. We don't just want to be champions, we want to be champions with great football, being better than the opponent, being the most disciplined team in the championship. We are the most disciplined team with the exception of a red card from Thiaguinho. To win, you don't need to appeal, here's this message.
With the 3-0 victory, with goals from Arrascaeta, Pedro and Léo Pereira, Mengão lifted its 24th Guanabara Cup. The round will end tomorrow (3) and Flamengo will meet its opponent in the championship semi-final.

This Wednesday (20), Flamengo faces Internacional again, now in the second leg of the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores, at the Beira-Rio stadium. The Rio de Janeiro team has already beaten the Gauchos in the two previous meetings : 1-0 at Maracanã and 3-1 last Sunday (17), in Rio Grande do Sul.
Casagrande bets: "I believe Flamengo will go through"
According to former player Casagrande, Internacional's strength as a home team is recognized, but Flamengo remains the clear favorite. " I believe Flamengo will advance. They have the advantage of a draw, and even with Inter having the support of their fans, playing at Beira-Rio, where it's not easy. So, I don't think Flamengo will lose this game. Flamengo will qualify," he stated.
Internacional, under pressure from the aggregate result, should adopt an attacking stance. However, Casagrande emphasizes that facing Flamengo is a difficult task , considering the strength of the squad and coach Filipe Luís's ability to make strategic adjustments during the match.
"It's a team that will have to go all out against Flamengo to score. Go all out against Flamengo, which has the best squad in South America . Filipe Luís takes off five players and puts on five, and the team, at times, even becomes more aggressive and better, guys," he explained.
With a favorable recent record, Flamengo arrives at Beira-Rio confident, even away from home. The expectation is to maintain its dominant pace and secure a spot in the Copa Libertadores quarterfinals, ensuring another standout performance from the squad.

After leaving Atlético de Madrid in the last transfer window, Samuel Lino arrived at Flamengo in good form and was already being closely watched by Carlo Ancelotti, who included him in a preliminary list for the Brazilian National Team's commitments in the World Cup Qualifiers.
Despite his short time at the club, Samuel Lino has already proven himself in the red-and-black squad . In six matches, the forward has actively participated in matches against Internacional, Mirassol, Ceará, and Atlético-MG (two times). Although he hasn't yet scored, his assist against Mirassol and his style, characterized by speed and dribbling, have earned him a place with the fans.
Carlo Ancelotti's interest intensified after a dinner in Rio de Janeiro on August 14 , when coach and player met. Vinícius Júnior's suspension for the first match of the FIFA World Cup leaves room for Samuel Lino to be considered as an alternative for the games against Chile and Bolivia, scheduled for September 4 and 9.
Carlo Ancelotti 's call-up will take place on Monday (25), and the coach will officially announce the list of players who will face Chile and Bolivia. The games will take place on September 4th and 9th , respectively. Léo Ortiz is also expected to appear in the call-up.
FLAMENGO CALENDAR
Despite the possibility of being called up, the striker shouldn't be a problem for Flamengo 's schedule. During the FIFA international break, the club will have a break from competition , with matches against Grêmio on August 31st and Juventude on September 13th. This way, Lino will be able to fully dedicate himself to the national team without compromising his commitments for the Rio de Janeiro club.

Flamengo takes to the field this Wednesday (20), at Beira-Rio, to decide a place in the quarterfinals of the Libertadores against Internacional . In addition to classification, the duel brings the opportunity for Rubro-Negro to equal its longest unbeaten streak against its rival from Rio Grande do Sul.
The current record dates back to the period between October 1989 and September 1993, when Flamengo went seven games unbeaten against Inter, winning three and drawing four in both the Brasileirão and Libertadores. The streak ended on October 30, 1993, with a 2-0 victory for the club in Porto Alegre.
In 2025, Flamengo again achieved a six-game unbeaten streak against Internacional , with three wins and three draws. Thus, another draw this Wednesday would exactly match the previous best streak, while a win would set a new all-time record.
DECISION IN BEIRA-RIO
In the first leg of the round of 16, Flamengo won 1-0 at Maracanã and now has the advantage of a draw to advance. Kick-off is at 9:30 PM (Brasília time). If they lose by one goal, the team will be decided on penalties ; if they lose by two or more goals, they will be eliminated.
