After this result, Rubro-Negro reached 63 points, in 2nd position, eight behind Galo. For Timão, the setback represented the permanence with 50 points, in the 5th position.
Thinking about the final of the Libertadores Cup, on November 27 at the Centenário stadium, in Montevideo (Uruguay), coach Renato Gaúcho sent a team with several players considered reserve players to the field.
However, who commanded the match was Flamengo, who played pushed by more than 48 thousand fans. And, after so much trying, the team from Gávea was awarded in the 47th minute of the second half, when Rodinei made a beautiful move on the right, getting rid of two markers, and crossed very well for Bruno Henrique just to check with his head.
Beautiful thing, @Bruno Henrique! Beautiful thing, Nation! What a night at Maracanã! #Let’s Flamengo
