Telleres have now turned their attention to the Copa Libertadores, where they are second in Group H after picking up six points from a possible nine so far.
Meanwhile, reigning champions Flamengo have kicked off their title defense in style as they comfortably sit at the top of the group after winning each of their three games.
The Brazilian outfit made it two wins from two last time out as they saw off Altos in the Copa do Brasil.
Flamengo are unbeaten in eight of their last nine outings in all competitions, with a 1-0 loss to Athletico Paranaense on April 23 being the only exception.
