Fernando Ricardo started as goalie, followed by Mariano, Gum and Andre Luis at fullback. Diogo, Diguinho and Marquinho played at midfielder while Conca, Alan and Fred started as strikers.
Apart from Fred's four goals, Conca, Gum and Alan added to the scoreboard. It is the second time that the teams face each other in a friendly this year.
In January, both teams played during their respective pre- season training. On that occasion, Fluminense won 2-0.
"We moved the ball very well today. In previous friendlies, we didn't convince ourselves that we played good. But today, we played with authority. We are prepared and ready for the return of the Brazilian Championship," said Marquinho.
Fluminense returns to action in the eighth round of the Brazilian Championship on July 15 when they host Gremio Prudente. Fluminense currently stands in third place with 15 points, trailing only Corinthians and Ceara.
