By Leonardo Pimenta - in
On Wednesday afternoon (18), Flamengo dominated from start to finish and applied a historic rout over Mixto, in Gávea. From the first minutes, Rubro-Negro imposed its rhythm and created clear chances. Before five minutes, it had already finished three times with danger, suffocating the opposing team that could barely get past the midfield.
The game
The scoring began with a free kick from the wing. Carol Martins subtly deflected the ball in from close range to open the scoring. Then, as Mixto pressed forward, Brendha challenged the goalkeeper, and the ball fell to Anna Luiza, who chipped it over to extend the lead.
The third came from a set piece: a corner kick was taken, the defense didn't clear it, and Brendha finished into an empty net. Brendha appeared again minutes later, taking advantage of a pass from Dudinha and the confusion in the box to score the fourth.
Flamengo continued their momentum and reached the fifth goal with another well-worked corner. After a rebound in the box, Maria Fernanda finished into the net. The opposing goalkeeper, trying to play out, handed the ball to Luana, who fired a precise shot into the top corner. Soon after, Alice was one-on-one with the goalkeeper and finished with ease: 7-0.
Without slowing down, Luana fed Laís, who crossed for Laura to score the eighth. Isabela then found Cerqueira in the box, who headed the ball in with skill to make it nine. Two minutes later, Alice found the net again with a cross-shot.
The eleventh goal came after a scuffle in the box, with full-back Bruna, a newcomer to the match, taking advantage of the opportunity to push the ball into the back of the net. Cerqueira calmly converted the penalty to score the twelfth, then recovered the ball in the attacking half and finished into the left corner for the thirteenth.
Alice also added another goal, firing a powerful shot from the edge of the box. Bruna again showed her worth twice in a row: first, she pounced on another loose ball and then, free in the six-yard box, completed her hat trick. On the next play, she reversed roles: she delivered a beautiful pass to Letícia Pinho for the seventeenth.
In stoppage time, Alice still had time to score the last goal of the match, ending the rout at 18-0 in Gávea.
