Champions Flamengo held 1-1 at home by lowly Atletico-GO
RIO DE JANEIRO, Nov 14 (Reuters) - Brazilian champions Flamengo missed a chance to move into joint top spot in the Serie A table on Saturday when they were held 1-1 at home by Atletico Goianiense.Bruno Henrique gave Flamengo the lead right on half time after running on to a sumptuous pass from Thiago Maia but Ze Roberto took advantage of poor defending to equalise for the visitors on the hour mark.Atletico beat Flamengo 3-0 in the opening match of the season but they are currently just three points above the relegation zone and without a win in their last six games.With title rivals Atletico Mineiro and Sao Paulo both winning, Flamengo drop into fourth place with 36 points, two behind leaders Atletico, who have played a game less.Atletico Goianense are in 14th spot in the 20-team table with 24 points.(Reporting by Andrew Downie; Editing by Kim Coghill)
