The veteran striker scored a goal in Vasco's 3-0 win over rival Flamengo, but still was one short of the milestone at Maracana stadium Sunday. Romario, who has 999 goals according to his count, was hoping to reach the mark at Maracana, the same place where Pele reached his thousand in 1969. Romario said: "I had hoped the stage for the goal would be here at Maracana," "But if it comes at another place it will be valid too. What will matter the most is the goal, not where it happens."
