RIO DE JANEIRO, Nov. 7 (Xinhua) -- Hosting Atletico-PR in the 34th round of the Brazilian Championship, Flamengo lost 1-0 on Sunday and the visitors climbed in the ranks and are hopeful of a spot in the 2011 Libertadores Cup.
Atletico-PR scored the first half's only goal. In the 39th minute, veteran and team captain Paulo Baier drove a stopped ball through the middle of the defensive wall of players. Flamengo's keeper Marcelo Lomba was unable to locate the ball and watched as it sailed into the left side of the goal.
