Flamengo Seals 2025 Brasileirão With Ceará Win as Lino Delivers Title Goal

With the trophy secured, the first team will depart for Doha to prepare for the Intercontinental, leaving the league finale to an under‑20 squad.

Overview

  • Flamengo beat Ceará 1–0 at a packed Maracanã to clinch the title with a round to spare, reaching 78 points and staying five clear of Palmeiras before 73,244 fans.
  • Samuel Lino scored around the 36th–37th minute from a Jorge Carrascal assist, capping a controlled display from the same starting XI used in the Libertadores final.
  • The club will field its under‑20s against Mirassol while the senior squad flies to Qatar; the Intercontinental opener against Cruz Azul is scheduled for December 10 in Doha.
  • Head coach Filipe Luís, about 14 months into the job, has now won five trophies and stated he wants to remain at the club.
  • The triumph completes a year that already includes the Libertadores, the Carioca and the Supercopa, while outlets differ on whether this is Flamengo’s eighth or ninth national title due to the 1987 dispute.
