Flamengo wins 2019 Florida Cup at Orlando City Stadium

A new champion was crowned Saturday during the final day of the 2019 Florida Cup at Orlando City Stadium.

Brazilian club Flamengo, who played up a man for most of the game, won the fifth edition of the tournament after defeating German club Eintracht Frankfurt 1-0.

Eintracht Frankfurt were reduced to 10 players in the 25th minute when captain David Abraham was issued a straight red card for a hands-to-the-face challenge on Robert Piris Da Motta.

With Frankfurt playing down a man, Flamengo capitalized. Jean Lucas gave the Brazilian side a 1-0 lead by tucking the ball past goalkeeper Kevin Trapp in the 40th minute.
