The match between Flamengo and Atlético-MG has a notable spectator this Thursday (31). This is because the red-black idol Ronaldo Angelim was spotted in the Maracanã stands. Therefore, the "Magro de Aço" is watching the first game of the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil.

In the images circulating on social media, the idol appears with the second jersey of the club from the 2021 season, personalized with his own name and the traditional number 4. Several fans took the opportunity to take photos and ask for autographs from the former athlete.
Recognized for his dedication on the field and deep identification with the Red-Black Nation, Angelim marked an era at the Most Beloved. During his time at Rubro-Negro, he played 256 games and scored 15 goals. The most memorable goal of his career came in the last round of the Brasileirão in 2009 against Grêmio, which secured the national title after 17 years of waiting.
Besides the "Magro de Aço", the Maracanã has the presence of Jorge Carrascal, who is expecting to sign with Flamengo in the coming days. The expectation was that the Colombian would be presented to the fans before the ball rolled this Thursday (31), but the pending documentation prevented it.
