Flamengo-PI requested police reinforcement for the first Rivengo (local derby) after a four-year interval. The request was made by the club's board to the state's public security authorities.
The main reason for the reinforcement request is the history of clashes between organized fan groups. The club considers that expanding security is necessary as a form of prevention against episodes of violence.
The Rivengo is the classic of Piauí football that pits Flamengo-PI against River-PI. The last match between the two teams happened four years ago, which makes the next game an event of greater expectation and concern for the organizers.
