Flamengo continues its preparation to face Estudiantes (ARG) this Thursday (18th), for the first leg of the quarterfinals of the Libertadores. Seeking to gain an advantage in the match, the Most Beloved hopes to assert its superiority over Argentine teams in the tournament's history.
After all, in the history of the Libertadores, Flamengo has played 25 matches against Argentine teams, achieving 13 victories, nine draws, and only three losses. That is, a 64% success rate. Thus, the superiority of Rubro-Negro over neighboring country opponents is evident.
The most memorable match against an Argentine team in Flamengo's history is the 2019 Libertadores final. After all, the Most Beloved won the continental tournament against River Plate (ARG), 2-1, after a historic comeback with two goals by Gabigol.
If Flamengo defeats Estudiantes and advances to the Libertadores semifinals, Mengão knows it will face a new Argentine team in the next phase. This is because the other match in the bracket involves Vélez Sarsfield (ARG) and Racing (ARG).
Meanwhile, Flamengo begins preparation to face Estudiantes (ARG) this Thursday (18th). The match takes place at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at Maracanã, for the first leg of the quarterfinals of the Libertadores.
Thus, as tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will provide the best internet coverage through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, ESPN (cable channel) and Disney+ (streaming) will broadcast the game between Flamengo and Estudiantes.
