Fluminense Football Club was founded on July 21, 2021. The first idea was to name Flu as Rio Football Club, but the chosen name ended up being Fluminense. ”Flumen” means “river” in Latin. The first game for the new team was played on October 19, 1902, three months after the club was born. It was the first rout in the history of Fluminense. Score: 8 to 0 for the tricolor. Fluminense has a marked difference in relation to the three rivals of Rio de Janeiro: it was the only one of the big four to be born focused on the practice of football. Therefore, it does not have “Regatas” in its official name.
