Idol of the fans and current coach of, Filipe Luís turns 40 this Saturday (9), the day when the red-black enters the field in Maracanã. At 6:30 pm (from Brasilia), the Rio team receives the Mirassol for the Brasileirão. The game, by the way, happens shortly after the elimination in the Brazilian Cup, when it took the worst on penalties against Atletico-MG. This was Philip’s second elimination as a coach in the professional.

Previously, Flamengo, commanding by the young coach, was eliminated at the Bayern Munich Club World Cup, also in the round of 16 (same phase that fell to Atletico-MG). The falls, however, do not erase the great work of the red-black.
Since arriving in Flamengo in September 2024, Filipe Luís has won three trophies: Brazil Cup (2024), Brazil Super Cup (2025) and Carioca Championship (2025). In total, the coach has 59 games ahead of the team, with 38 wins, 15 draws and six losses.
Pressure for titles this season after elimination
Since Luiz Eduardo Baptista, the Bap, took over the presidency of Flamengo, the club has classified the Brazilian Cup as third priority, behind Brasileirão and Libertadores. However, in the face of midweek elimination in the World Cup, the pressure for the titles of both competitions increases. But it is not just the fall in the Brazilian Cup that leaves the red-black with this scenario.
➡️
Flamengo, with cash due to the sales of Gerson and Wesley, for example, in addition to the Club World Cup awards, did not spare his pocket as he went to the transfer market. Thus, he hired four heavy reinforcements: Saul, Emerson Royal, Samuel Lino and Carrascal. With the increasingly starry cast, with very quality players, the fans hopes to see the result on the field. That is, with titles.
