Without facing any major difficulties throughout the first phase of the Copa Brasileirinho Internacional (formerly Copa Dadazinho), the main national competition in the category, Flamengo's U-14 team thrashed Figueirense by a merciless 5x0 (João Vitor [3], Peterson and Uchôa) on Wednesday afternoon (10), in a match played at the Imaculada Conceição Stadium, in the city of Sarzedo, in the metropolitan region of Minas Gerais. The large score confirmed the isolated leadership of the Group to the Garotos do Ninho, who had previously defeated Cariri (CE) in their debut by 3x0 (Vitor Muller [2] and Peterson), and tied 0x0 with Aster (ES).

Now the competition enters the knockout stage, and this Thursday morning (11), at 9 am, Mais Querido returns to the field to face Matheus Leme, a team from Minas Gerais. Whoever wins will face Bahia or Comercial (MA) in the quarterfinals of the important and traditional national competition in the category.
