The season debut took place against Portuguesa-RJ, in the 1st round of the Taça Guanabara — main phase of the Campeonato Carioca — on January 26, but with younger players.[1] The debut of the main team took place on February 2, in the 3rd round of the Taça Guanabara, against Boavista-RJ.[2] They were runners-up of the Taça Guanabara. In the Carioca finals, they ended up runners-up after a 2–0 defeat and a 1–1 draw against Fluminense.[3][4]
In the Supercopa do Brasil, they tied in normal time by 2–2 and lost the title in the penalty shoot-out to Atlético Mineiro by 8–7, being, therefore, runner-up.[5]
