Madness! Flamengo v Vasco derby goes to the wire 🤯

With a goal in the VERY LAST PLAY, Flamengo and Vasco drew 2-2 this Sunday (3) at the Maracanã, in the 14th round of the Brasileirão.

With Carlo Ancelotti in attendance at the Maracanã, Flamengo went 2-0 up through Pedro and Jorginho, but Vasco pulled level with goals from Robert Renan and Hugo Moura.

A result greatly celebrated by Palmeiras, who saw Flamengo — with a game in hand — closing the gap in the standings.

Carletto was there!

Carlo Ancelotti did, in fact, make an appearance at the Maracanã.

The Brazil national team coach was accompanied by Rodrigo Caetano, Coordinator of Men’s National Teams, Juan, technical coordinator, and fitness coach Cristiano Nunes.

Pedro was reportedly one of the players being watched.

Pedro scores and Vasco push

It took just eight minutes for Pedro to find space, beat Robert Renan and Cuesta, and celebrate his eighth goal in the Brasileirão.

Vasco did not let it affect them. They managed to find spaces and then neutralize their rivals.

What was missing, though, was finishing quality. Brenner’s chance, for example.

Vasco even found the net, but it was ruled offside.

The Cruz-Maltino side were more aggressive before the break.

Meanwhile, Flamengo gradually limited themselves to looking for counterattacks.
