Flamengo fans will fill the Maracanã to support the team heading into the first leg of the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil against Palmeiras. In three days, red and black people bought around 48 thousand tickets for the first clash with the São Paulo team, this Wednesday (31), at 8 pm, and there are only two sectors left available.
O Flamengo's official sales website informs that four sectors are already sold out for departure: North, Lower and Upper East and Lower West. This way, there are only entrances left for Setor Sul and Maracanã Mais. The information on the 48 thousand tickets sold was first published by the channel 'Paparazzo Rubro-Negro'.
The prices for the South Sector are R$ 90 (full price) and R$ 45 (half price), while for Maracanã Mais they cost R$700 or R$387.50. It is worth remembering that fan members have a discount of up to 50% on the half-price ticket, depending on the plan.
The expectation is that the remaining tickets will sell out soon and more than 60 thousand rubro-negros be at Maracanã to push Flamengo in the match. Game that will break the Copa do Brasil 2024 attendance record.
The 48 thousand tickets sold until the morning of this Monday (29) already guarantee the tournament record. The brand currently belongs to the Corinthians x América-RN game in the third phase, which had 39,355 attendees (39,108 paying) at the Neo Química Arena.
Flamengo begins preparations to face Palmeiras
After the victory over Atlético-GO, the red and black squad returns this Monday focused on the Copa do Brasil clash. Coach Tite will have two training sessions to prepare the team and still needs to know if he will be able to count on the full squad.
The players who were starters will do regenerative work in the CT, while reserves will work on the field with the technical committee. Bruno Henrique and De La Cruz, absent due to physical problems, are continuing their recovery to be available against Palmeiras.
The attacker is a doubt, as he is still recovering from a sprained ankle. On the other hand, despite Tite stating that De La Cruz “was not in any condition” to play this Sunday due to pain in his tendons, the expectation is that he will be among those selected for the Copa do Brasil.

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.
