Flamengo and Corinthians drew this Wednesday (October 27.10th) at Engenhão. Despite surprising everyone with a lineup that included three forwards, Flamengo fell behind and only managed to draw with their São Paulo rivals. The positive point of the night was Flamengo's goal, scored by Diogo, who until then had not scored for the club.
With this result, Flamengo reached 39 points, in 13th position. Next Wednesday (November 03.11rd), the Rubro-negro will travel to Ceará to face the home team, at Castelão, at 21:50 pm.
At the start of the first half, Corinthians sat deep in their own half, making it very difficult for Flamengo to attack. The game became bogged down, with few offensive chances for either side. For Corinthians, up until the 20th minute, there was only one chance, a counter-attack involving midfielder Ralf. He found himself alone, one-on-one with Lomba, but the Flamengo goalkeeper made the save.
The same scenario on Flamengo's side. A single good chance for Renato. After a scramble in the Corinthians area, the ball fell to Léo Moura, who passed it to the Flamengo midfielder to shoot powerfully from outside the area towards Júlio Cesar's right corner, but the goalkeeper made a good save.
And the match continued uneventfully, with no major scoring opportunities for either team until Corinthians managed to score. Unmarked, Ronaldo received a pass from Bruno César in the Flamengo penalty area and shot into the left corner past Marcelo Lomba. After Corinthians' goal, the game returned to its previous pace, and no further dangerous plays occurred for either side.
Boos set the tone when Flamengo left the field at the end of the first half. Coach Vanderlei Luxemburgo decided to make changes to the team (Marquinho came on and Deivid went off), and the atmosphere changed right at the start of the second half. Marquinhos took a corner kick in the 2nd minute, Renato flicked it on at the near post, and Diogo finished it off at the far post.
At 14 minutes, after continuing to control the game and showing great determination, Flamengo attacked again, this time with Diego Maurício. He received the ball in the area, collided with goalkeeper Júlio Cesar, but the rebound fell to Léo Moura. He passed back to Diego Maurício, who turned and shot with the outside of his foot, but straight at the Corinthians goalkeeper.
The match became electrifying and Flamengo maintained the pressure. At 23 minutes, Maldonado launched Marquinhos on the left. He dribbled past the opposing defender well, shot, but ended up being blocked by the defense. Luxa gave the team more energy with the entries of Correa and Val Baiano, in place of Willians and Diogo, and Flamengo improved. They improved, but couldn't turn the game around.
Corinthians had two more scoring chances, one with Danilo and another with Ronaldo, but failed to change the score. Flamengo came close with Renato in the 47th minute, but also failed to score: 1-1 at Engenhão.
