Flamengo showed no mercy to Vitória last Monday (25th) and, with a show from Pedro, defeated the team from Bahia 8-0 at Maracanã. After the match, striker Neymar, from Santos and the Brazilian National Team, praised one of the goals scored by the Flamengo center-forward.

On that occasion, the Flamengo center-forward received a pass from Samuel Lino, pulled off a humiliating “elástico” dribble on the defender, and finished with a chip over the goalkeeper Lucas Arcanjo.
Pedro started for Flamengo against Vitória and scored another hat-trick wearing the red-and-black shirt. The striker also provided an assist that resulted in a goal by Luiz Araújo. In this way, the number 9 reached the milestone of 100 goals scored at Maracanã.
With the historic thrashing of Vitória, Flamengo reached 46 points and remains the isolated leader of the Brazilian Championship. O Mais Querido ruled out any possibility of Palmeiras catching up, since the team from São Paulo defeated Sport 3-0 at Allianz Parque.
Thus, with Pedro available, Flamengo will play again next Sunday (31st), at 4pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã, against Grêmio, in a match valid for the 22nd round of the Brazilian Championship. In this way, Coluna do Fla brings you all the information before and after the match.
