After an unforgettable night last Wednesday (23), at the Maracanã stadium, Flamengo would like to publicly thank those who were part of the operation of the Conmebol Libertadores semi-final match and the beautiful party led by the Biggest Fans in the World in the stands.

Together with Rio City Hall, MP-RJ, Fire Department, BEPE, FERJ, CET-Rio, Municipal Guard, Supervia, Metrô Rio, CCU, SEOP, Comlurb, and the Major Events Court—the club's operations and fan membership program teams—played an impeccable role in managing game day activities and allowing the nearly 70 red-and-black fans present at Maracanã to cheer in comfort and safety. Among these institutions, we would like to give special thanks to Rio City Hall, BEPE and the Fire Department, who also made possible the actions requested by the club's membership program for the fans' party at the team's reception on the field.

The Club also thanks the representatives who, alongside Severiano Braga, Flamengo's Game and Stadium Operations Manager and Maracanã's general director, were spokespersons at the press conference last Monday (21): Lieutenant Colonel Silvio Luiz (Commander of BEPE), Marcelo Viana (Director of Competitions at FERJ), Felipe Michel (Secretary of Quality of Life and Events of Rio), Cláudio Varela (Public Prosecutor of MP/RJ), Gustavo Oliveira (Advisor at CET-Rio), Carlos Cristo (Deputy Director of Ordering at the Municipal Guard) and Gutemberg de Paula (Secretary of Public Order).

Finally, our biggest thanks: to the Red-Black Nation. Besides pushing the team to victory, which took us to the CONMEBOL Libertadores final, the fans showed their commitment. With five hours to go before the match against Grêmio, 98% of the vouchers had already been exchanged. At the stadium, more than 60 people had already entered with an hour to go before kickoff.


We will play together for the World Cup until the end!
