Clube de Regatas Flamengo

Clube de Regatas do Flamengo is a Brazilian multisport club from Rio de Janeiro.

Despite not being the club's official name, Flamengo has become the term used by most to refer not just to the football team, but also the entire sporting association. Other nicknames used by fans include "Fla", "Mengo", and "Mengão", as well descriptions of the club's official colors, rubro-negro, which translates to "the scarlet-blacks" or "the scarlet and black."

Flamengo's football/soccer team -- the most popular in Brazil with 40 million estimated supporters -- placed 9th in FIFA Clubs of the 20th Century.

The club has been sponsored by Petrobras since 1984, the longest single sponsorship in any country.

Flamengo are one of the four clubs to have never been relegated or removed from the Brazilian First Division, the others being Cruzeiro, Internacional and Vasco da Gama.

Their biggest rivals are the other three top clubs from Rio de Janeiro: Fluminense, Botafogo and Vasco da Gama. Nowadays, Vasco da Gama are considered Flamengo's top rivals, but intensity of football rivalry has changed in Rio over generations: during the 1960s and most of the 1970s, for instance, Flamengo supporters considered Botafogo to be the club's top rival, although the most historical rivalry is with Fluminense, dating from the beginning of football in the club, at 1912.
