Clube de Regatas do Flamengo

Nickname(s) Mengão, Rubro-Negro
(The Scarlet-Black)
History
It was founded on November 15, 1895 as a rowing club by rowers José Agostinho Pereira da Cunha, Mário Spindola, Nestor de Barros, Augusto Lopes, José Félix da Cunha Meneses and Felisberto Laport.
The group used to gather at the Café Lamas, in Largo do Machado, and decided to form a rowing team because that was the elite sport in Rio de Janeiro in the late 19th century and they hoped the adventure would make them famous and popular with the young ladies of Rio's high society. They could only afford a used boat, which they called "The Pherusa" and had to undergo a complete reform before it could be used in competition. The team debuted on 6 October 1895, when they sailed off the Caju Point, from the Maria Angu beach having the Flamengo beach as their destination. However, strong winds turned their boat over and they nearly drowned, being rescued by a fishing boat, the Leal ("The Loyal"). During the works to repair the Pherusa, the boat was stolen and never again found. The group then had to save up money to buy a new boat, the "Etoile", renamed "Scyra". On the night of November 15th, the group gathered at Nestor de Barros's manor, at the Flamengo beach and founded the Flamengo Rowing Club, also electing its first board.
Its most popular modality, the football department, started when a group of dissatisfied players from the Fluminense Football Club (note that at the time Flamengo did not compete in football) broke away from the club following a fight with the board. The group of players (Othon de Figueiredo Baena, Píndaro de Carvalho Rodrigues, Emmanuel Augusto Nery, Ernesto Amarante, Armando de Almeida, Orlando Sampaio Matos, Gustavo Adolpho de Carvalho, Lawrence Andrews and Arnaldo Machado Guimarães) went to Flamengo's because the team's captain Alberto Borgeth, who also left, was also a rower for Flamengo. Admittance of the new members was approved on 8 November 1911 and after prevailing over an internal movement against the Club's participation in football tournaments, the members assembly officially created the football team on December 24, 1911.
The new team trained at the Russel beach, and gained the sympathy of the locals, who watched closely their practice games. The first official match was played on 3 May 1912 and is, to this day, the most spectacular win of the club, as the team defeated the Mangueira team by a score of 15x2. The first Fla-Flu (one of the most famous derbies in Brazilian football, in which Flamengo plays Fluminense) was also played in that year, on 7 July, and was won by Fluminense, by 3x2.

The Golden Age
In 1978 a scarlet-black Golden Age was beginning as Flamengo won Rio State Championship. The five following years would be years of glory. Stars as Júnior, Carpegiani, Adílio, Cláudio Adão and Tita were led by Zico to become State Champions for three times in a row. The excitement and pride of the achievement pushed Flamengo towards its first Brazilian Championship in 1980. Then, as national champions, the club was qualified to play the South American continental tournament - the Libertadores Cup.
1981 is a landmark year in Flamengo's history. After beating Chilean Cobreloa in three matches, the club became South American Champions. The next goal was clear: the World Club Championship, a single match to be played in Tokyo's Olympic Stadium, Japan, against European Champions' Cup winner Liverpool FC.
Raul, Leandro, Marinho, Mozer, Júnior, Andrade, Adílio, Zico, Tita, Nunes and Lico were the line-up in charge of playing Flamengo's most important match ever on December 13, 1981. Two goals by Nunes, one goal by Adílio, and a brilliant performance by Zico were more than enough to make Flamengo the first Brazilian World Champions club since Pelé's Santos FC.
The next two years would also be great. Another Rio's State Championship in 1981 and two Brazilian Championships - 1982 and 1983 - closed the Golden Age in a fantastic way.

Stadium
The Estádio da Gávea ("Gávea Stadium", in English) (22°58′41.59″S, 43°13′15.72″W), also known as Estádio José Bastos Padilha is a football stadium inaugurated on September 4, 1938 in the Lagoa neighborhood, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, with a maximum capacity of 8,000 people, and is the home ground of Flamengo, its owner. The stadium is named after José Bastos Padilha, Flamengo's president at the time of the stadium construction. He was Flamengo's president between 1933 and 1937.
Flamengo rarely plays at Estádio da Gávea. The club's most used stadium is Maracanã.
Estádio do Maracanã
The Estádio do Maracanã, "Maracanã stadium", (official name: Estádio Jornalista Mário Filho) (22°54′43.68″S, 43°13′48.54″W), in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, is one of the largest football stadiums in the world. Maracanã is the name of its neighborhood in Rio de Janeiro. It is home to three of the four biggest football clubs in Rio: Flamengo, Botafogo and Fluminense.
The stadium, built for the 1950 FIFA World Cup, originally had a capacity of 200,000. However, its capacity was greatly reduced when it was converted to an all-seater in the 1990s; it can currently hold around 77,720 seated and 103,022 with standing room. It is now undergoing renovations that will increase its all-seated capacity to around 100,000.
The 1950 deciding match between Brazil and Uruguay was hosted at the Maracanã stadium. Brazil only needed a draw to win, but lost the match 2-1 after being up 1-0 ; this match has since been known as the "Maracanaço" (or in Spanish, "Maracanazo").
On January 22, 2006, after nine months closed for reformation, the stadium was reopened. In the inaugural match, Botafogo beat Vasco da Gama 5-3.
The Campeonato Carioca finals usually are played at Maracanã stadium. Also, the stadium hosted the 1950 World Cup Final between Brazil and Uruguay, the 1951 Copa Rio final between Palmeiras (Brazil) and Juventus (Italy) and the 2000 FIFA Club World Championship final between Vasco da Gama and Corinthians.
It is particularly famous for holding the fabled Fla-Flu, the classic showdown between Flamengo and Fluminense, widely regarded as one of the most spectacular sporting events in the world.
Former Flamengo midfielder Zico is the stadium top scorer: 333 goals in 435 matches
