Flamengo take the lead but sit back late on, held to a draw by Ceará
At the Arena Castelão, Flamengo and Ceará drew 1-1, on Sunday (3), in the 18th round of the 2025 Brasileirão. In the first half, the Rubro-Negro was dominant, having 75% of ball possession, although they didn't pose much danger to the opposing goalkeeper. Gonzalo Plata, Bruno Henrique, and Samuel Lino, in fact, had good chances to score. However, the advantage on the scoreboard was achieved in a great collective play, with Léo Ortiz giving the pass in the area from above, Gonzalo Plata giving the headed assist, and Arrascaeta (36') scoring with a first-time shot. This was the 14th goal of the Uruguayan star with the Rubro-Negro shirt, in 36 games in the season. And a detail: since the elimination in the Club World Cup, on June 29, Flamengo had not scored a goal in the first half. On that occasion, however, the result was 4-2 for Bayern Munich. After the interval, Ceará left aside the strategy of playing closed and seeking the counter-attack and went after the visitors. Lucas Mugni, who entered the field after the break, hit the post (10') and took the corner kick that Pedro Raul (21') headed in, rising higher than the defenders to equalize. The center-forward, who scored his 13th goal of the year, counted on the strange exit of goalkeeper Rossi.🚦 How it stands The draw was enough for Flamengo to reach 37 points and retake the lead, which had been with Cruzeiro (37 points) for a few hours, after a win over Botafogo. With one game less than Raposa, the cariocas are ahead due to a better goal difference (24 x 19). Ceará, in turn, reached 22 points and stayed in tenth place. Rubro-Negro returns to the field next Wednesday (6), when they visit Atlético-MG, at Arena MRV, for the return leg of the Copa do Brasil round of 16. In the first leg, Galo won 1-0. In the Brasileirão, Flamengo hosts Mirassol, at Maracanã, on Saturday (9), to close the first round. Vozão visits Palmeiras, at Allianz Parque, on Sunday (10).

📊 Brasileirão table: giants swap places in the Z-4 after Saturday
The weekend is a full round in the Brasileirão and, this Saturday (26), five games opened the #17. Were there many draws? There were, but there was no lack of excitement! For example, in the 1 x 1 between Botafogo and Corinthians, at the Nilton Santos Stadium, the Glorious took the lead, played better, but the Timão pulled a draw with the "contested" Memphis Depay. The point was enough for Corinthians to gain three positions in the table, at least until Sunday's games, which complete the Recife, Sport opened 2 x 0 against Santos, was left with one more player, but ended up taking the draw in 2 x 2 in the final minutes. The Lion of the Island, thus, continues without winning in the Brasileirão, while the Peixe managed to get out of the other draw of the round was the 1 x 1 between Mirassol and Vitória. But don't be fooled by the "modest" score. Both teams missed good at the Arena Castelão, Fortaleza beat RB Bragantino 3 x 1 and ended a streak of six rounds without victories, in a total of 10 games without knowing what the three points were. The result made Laion gain a position in the table, leaving the penultimate position to Juventude, who still plays in the at home, Palmeiras beat Grêmio 1 x 0 and "engaged the third" in the Brasileirão. With the new victory, Verdão stuck to the leader Cruzeiro and vice Flamengo.📆 Schedule of Sunday's games 4pm (Brasília time) - São Paulo x Fluminense 4pm (Brasília time) - Cruzeiro x Ceará 6:30pm (Brasília time) - Internacional x Vasco 6:30pm (Brasília time) - Bahia x Juventude 8:30pm (Brasília time) - Flamengo x Atlético-MG 📊 Check the UPDATED Brasileirão table This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.
