Audax SP U23 and Flamengo SP U23 Play Out Stalemate in Paulista Serie B

Audax SP U23 and Flamengo SP U23 played to a goalless draw in a Brazilian Paulista Serie B fixture on June 28, 2026. The match at Audax’s home ground was a tightly contested affair, with both defences coming out on top and attacking players failing to find the decisive finish.

First Half: Cautious Approach

The opening 45 minutes saw few clear-cut chances. Audax tried to impose their game through quick passing in midfield, but Flamengo were well-drilled and pressed effectively. The best opportunity came from a free kick just outside the box, but Audax’s set-piece taker curled the ball narrowly over the crossbar. Flamengo’s counter-attacks were lively, but their final ball lacked precision.

Second Half: Chances But No Goals

After the break, the game opened up slightly. Audax created a golden chance in the 55th minute when a cross found their striker unmarked six yards out, but he headed straight at the goalkeeper. Flamengo responded with their own spell of pressure, forcing a sharp save from the Audax goalkeeper in the 72nd minute. The final 15 minutes saw both teams push for a winner, but fatigue set in and the score remained 0-0.

Defensive Highlights

• Audax’s Organised Defence: Kept a clean sheet against a Flamengo side that had scored in their previous three matches.
• Flamengo’s Work Rate: Their midfielders and defenders tracked back tirelessly to nullify Audax’s threats.
• Missed Opportunity: Both teams will feel they could have grabbed all three points on another day.
