To stay at the tip, Rio team will have to cheer for Palmeiras not to defeat São Paulo in this Sunday’s classic (10), at Arena Barueri
After stumbling over the Central Cordoba in Libertadores, he gave him a response to his fans on Saturday (10). The red-black team played a good game against-especially in the first half-and won 1-0. The goal was, at the beginning of the game, rewarding an intense and devastating beginning of Mengão. The carioca team still had a scored goal and an expelled player (Gerson, after consultation with VAR). With the victory, Flamengo reached 17 points and sleeps in the lead: they are tied with Red Bull Bragantino – but ahead in the qualifying for goal balance – and one more than Palmeiras. However, you will have to hope that Verdon does not win São Paulo this Sunday (11). The Bahian tricolor has 12 points.

- Flamengo had an excellent beginning and got the goal early, with Arrascaeta
- When the physicist weighed, Mengão was intelligent and bet on the exchange of passes
- Bahia even played a good game, but Rossi showed why he is the cheerleader
- Gerson was expelled at the end, but Flamengo occupied spaces and did not suffer in the last minutes
