The second goal came moments later as Marcelo collected a cross from the right flank and fired a shot into the top corner of the net from an acute angle.

Both goals were crucial in helping Flamengo secure a hard-fought victory over Cruzeiro,Campeonato Brasileiro Action who had dominated much of the game. Marcelo's display was a reminder of why he is considered one of the best wing players in Brazil, and why he has been a key member of the team for years.

Despite facing some criticism earlier this season, Marcelo has shown that he is still capable of making a difference on the pitch. His performances have helped to keep Flamengo in the hunt for a top spot in the league table, and his continued progress could be crucial as the team looks to make a push for a title at the end of the season.
