Fla-Flu in sight at the Libertadores?


The tricolor carioca awaits the result of Olimpia x Flamengo; Samuel Xavier and “President” John Kennedy give a show at the Maracanã




It’s been a battle. Maybe it wasn’t as violent as it was in 2011, but it was a little gory. Who celebrated? The Fluminense! Tricolor obtained the second victory in the history of the duel against Argentinos Juniors. In the first stage, Flu had difficulty creating and got some scares. Gérman Cano also didn’t play well. ‘Parked’ in the 28 goals this season.

At 28′ of the first half Cano is undecided. He didn’t know whether to shoot outside the box or play for Arias without scoring. The Argentine has missed an incredible opportunity.

In the second half the nervousness continued. Cano again missed a clear opportunity. However, the evening belonged to top scorer Samuel Xavier, with another beautiful goal (he also scored in a different way in the first leg), and John Kennedy’s revelation Xerém in a brilliant week, who scored his second goal in three days of break. . JK made his fifth of the year and his eleventh in professional Fluminense.

To remember is to live

In 2011, Tricolor das Laranjeiras had to win in the heart of the Argentine capital. Otherwise, the influence would be eliminated in the group stage. In a closely contested game, the team from Rio de Janeiro scored the winning goal in the 44th minute of the second half. A 4 to 2 to remember. Fred & Cia in the round of 16 of the Libertadores.

The embarrassing flu defeat against the Buenos Aires club that revealed Diego Armando Maradona dates back to August 5, 1985: 1-0 in the Maracanã center in the group stage. They lost in the same edition of the competition against Argentinos again 1-0. This time out. For the 1973 summer international tournament: 1 to 1.

The penultimate match was 1-1 at the Estádio Diego Armando Maradona, with a great goal from Samuel Xavier.

Diniz-Sampaoli in the quarterfinals? Promise huh.
