In the first leg of the final of the Campeonato Carioca Feminino, Flamengo lost to Botafogo 3-1 on Tuesday afternoon (1), at Caio Martins. Crivelari scored the only goal for the red-black team. More Dear will try to reverse the result on Saturday (5), at 10 am, in Gávea.

The game
The derby began with Flamengo taking the initiative, pressing high up the pitch to try to win the ball back in their attacking half. Four minutes in, Flamengo created the first threat. Jucinara crossed into the box, and Crivelari headed the ball away. The ball went just wide of the post.

In the 11th minute, Botafogo took the lead with a goal from Valéria, making it 1-0. Trailing, Flamengo pushed forward in search of an equalizer. Crivelari arrived with freedom on the right and sent a low cross into the box. Leidiane caught it first time, but the black-and-white goalkeeper managed to keep it out.

In the 30th minute, Mengão leveled the scores in Niterói. Duda made a good run down the left, got past his marker, and crossed into the box. Crivelari headed it firmly into the back of the net: 1-1. The first half ended with the score tied.

After the break, the Meninas da Gávea continued their attacking play, exchanging passes. With the pitch somewhat heavy, the game became quite tense in midfield. In the 14th minute, Botafogo scored their second goal through Kélen, a beautiful shot from outside the box, making it 2-1.

Flamengo narrowly avoided equalizing again. Crivelari came face-to-face with the goalkeeper, took a corner kick, but hit the post, wasting a great opportunity. In the 41st minute, Duda committed a foul in the box, and the referee awarded a penalty. Isa Rangel stepped up to take the penalty and scored Botafogo's third, making the derby 3-1.
