The visit to Maracanã was humiliating and painful for Vitória. The shame was so great that the Bahian club stopped informing fans about the score in the 21st round match of the Brazilian Championship. On X, the old Twitter, the team from Salvador stopped updating what was happening in the match after the 5-0 score. However, there were still three more goals, as the Flamengo won 8-0 on Monday (25).
Usually, clubs update in real-time what happens in the match. However, Vitória stopped posting after Samuel Lino's goal, headed in after a cross from Varela, the fifth of the match. Shortly after, the Bahians returned to the networks, but with a simple and dry "end of game", without updating the final score.
Flamengo started strong and opened 2-0 with just three minutes, with Samuel Lino and Pedro. Later, at 34', Arrascaeta extended the lead. In the second half, five more: Pedro, Lino, Luiz Araújo, Pedro, and Bruno Henrique, in that order. That is, Vitória, there's no use hiding: MENGÃO EIGHT TO ZERO!
With the crushing victory, Flamengo reached the incredible mark of 44 goals scored, nine conceded, and a 35-goal difference. Curiously, just the goal difference is greater than the number of goals scored by the other 19 teams in the competition. Impressive!
Flamengo tries to further increase its achievements next Sunday (31), against Grêmio, at Maracanã, for the 22nd round. The ball rolls from 4 pm (Brasília time), worth the 'fat' in the leadership of the Brazilian Championship. Coluna do Fla, of course, will provide full coverage of the match.
