In the second match this Saturday (29), in Gávea, the Garotos do Ninho of the U-15 followed the same steps as the U-17 category, and also won the Guanabara Cup title. Coach Mario Jorge's team beat Portuguesa 8-0, in the last round of the group stage of the competition. Werton (three times), Fellipe (three times), João Pedro and Leoni scored the goals for Mais Querido.

Flamengo will face Botafogo or Nova Iguaçu in one of the state semifinals on the 13th, at a venue yet to be determined. The return leg will be on the 20th, at Gávea Stadium. Fluminense and Vasco will decide the other spot in the grand final.

It's worth remembering that in addition to the Guanabara Cup, the U-15 Ninho Boys won the Nike Premier this year, an international competition that took the team to the World Cup in Austria.

The teams had barely taken to the field when Mengão opened the scoring. Less than a minute into the match, Werton scored his first goal of the match. In the 10th minute, Fellipe led a brilliant counterattack down the left and passed the ball to Werton, who simply displaced the goalkeeper and scored his second goal of the game.

Before the first half hour of play, Flamengo was already leading 3-0. In the 28th minute, a ball was passed from right to left, and João Pedro controlled it with his thigh and sent a shot into the back of the net, extending Flamengo's lead. Flamengo had several chances in the first half to extend the lead.

Despite the early lead, the Ninho Boys returned from the break with the same hunger. Wertinho can attest to that. After a cross from the right, he found himself unmarked in the box to head home his hat trick in the sixth minute of the second half.

In the 14th minute, Fellipe scored Mengão's fifth. Quintino made a good play and risked a shot from the edge of the box; the ball hit the post, and the number 9 took advantage of the rebound to score his own.

Who said it was over? There was more room, and Flamengo pushed forward. In the 28th minute, Fellipe received the ball on the left and, with excellent vision, left Leoni one-on-one with the goal. The number 21 coolly scored the sixth goal of the match. Fellipe's excellent performance resulted in another goal. From the edge of the box, the number 9 hit a shot into the top corner, unstoppable for the opposing goalkeeper. In the dying minutes, in the 40th minute, Fellipe scored his hat trick and sealed the victory. Flamengo 8-XNUMX to Portuguesa.
