Positive retrospect
In the Carioca Championship, Flamengo played 229 matches, with 90 wins for Flamengo, 62 draws, and 77 wins for Vasco. In terms of goals, Mengão has a positive balance: 309 to 293. Overall, Flamengo and Vasco have played 376 matches. Flamengo once again holds the advantage, winning 144 times, compared to Cruzmaltino's 130 wins and 102 draws. Flamengo has 508 goals to Vasco's 493.
The classic was once the final of the Copa do Brasil
With a 2-0 victory in the first leg of the final, Flamengo entered the second leg of the final at the Maracanã with one hand on the trophy. Nervous, Vasco lost striker Valdir Papel to a red card just 16 minutes into the first half. A few minutes later, after the Vasco defense cleared a shot by Léo Moura, the ball fell to left-back Juan in the penalty area. The powerful, low shot ended up in the net, into Cássio's left corner, securing the trophy for the Rubro-Negro. Relive:
