Juliano Belletti has more losses than victories against Flamengo


No player from Barcelona (ESP) U-20 has had the opportunity to face Flamengo in their career. However, the coach of the Spanish team, Brazilian Juliano Belletti, knows the Rubro-Negro well. The former right-back has more losses than victories against the Most Beloved from his playing days.

Playing for Cruzeiro, São Paulo and Fluminense, Belletti faced Flamengo 14 times, with seven losses, one draw, and six victories for the former full-back. Even the only time the current coach of Barcelona U-20 scored against Mengão, the result was negative.

For the superstitious Rubro-Negros, good news: when Belletti faced Flamengo in finals, he lost. The first was the decision of the Gold Cup 1996, held in Manaus.

In 2001, Flamengo was again champion over Belletti's São Paulo. In the Champions Cup, in a final played in two matches, in João Pessoa-PB, the Most Beloved had the best aggregate score. In the first leg, 5 to 3, with goals by Edílson Capetinha (three), Reinaldo and Beto, with Luís Fabiano and Rogério Pinheiro scoring. Then, in the second leg, the Morumbi team won 3 to 2, with one from Kaká and two from França; Juan and Petkovic scored for the Most Beloved. Thus, Fla took the trophy on aggregate.
