Flamengo SHOCKED Corinthians fans and Brazilian football this Sunday afternoon (27), at the Maracanã.

With a stellar performance, the Rubro-Negro defeated Timão 4-0 in the Superclássico valid for the sixth round of BR 2025.

Everton Cebolinha, at 5', Arrascaeta, at 34', and Pedro, at 37' and 80', scored the goals in the rout led by Filipe Luís.

It's worth mentioning that Flamengo took a big step towards victory already in the first half by opening 3-0.

WHAT A FIRST HALF!

The numbers speak for themselves: Flamengo had ten shots compared to only four from Corinthians during the first 45 minutes.

Not to mention Pedro's shot that hit the post when the score was still 1-0, which could have made Corinthians' situation even worse.

A dominance of 57% ball possession against 43% for the visitors.

And putting a well-known figure among Flamengo fans on edge: coach Dorival Júnior.

Having previously coached the Rubro-Negro and likely the new coach of Corinthians, Dorival was at the Maracanã watching the game in person (more details below).

300 + 100!

April 27, 2025, will not easily be forgotten by Flamengo fans.

The same can be said for two Fla players: Luiz Araújo and the idol Bruno Henrique.

Trained in Cotia by São Paulo, Luiz Araújo completed his hundredth game with the Most Beloved's jersey against Corinthians.

BH, on the other hand, played his 300th match for Flamengo.

For those who don't know, the forward is the third top scorer of the club in the 21st century.

Not to mention he is the third top scorer of Fla in the history of the Brazilian Championship.

Is that good enough or do you want more?

Has Dorival already regretted it?

As mentioned above, Dorival Júnior is in Rio de Janeiro and watched the Superclássico directly from the stadium.

The former coach of the Brazilian National Team has not yet been announced by the São Paulo club, but the deal was confirmed by several journalists.

And of course, people on social media wouldn't let it slide, right?

There was no shortage of people joking about Dorival reconsidering his decision to choose Corinthians after the 4-0.

Are you going to quit, coach?

What's next?

With the great victory, Flamengo rises to 14 points, temporarily taking the lead in Serie A.

Palmeiras, with 13 points, hosts Bahia at 18:30 and can reclaim the position.

Mengo will play again in the Brazilian league next Sunday (4), away against Cruzeiro.

Before that, they face Botafogo-PB on Thursday (1) for the Copa do Brasil.

Corinthians, on the other hand, remains at seven points, currently in eleventh place on the table.

Timão will face Novo Horizontino away next Wednesday (1) for the Copa do Brasil and will host Inter on Saturday (3) for the Brazilian league.
