FIFA President, Gianni Infantino must be tired of congratulating Flamengo in 2025. After winning their fourth Libertadores in November, the president sent a new message to Filipe Luís's team for their qualification to the Intercontinental semifinal, this Wednesday (10).
“Congratulations to Flamengo for winning the FIFA Americas Derby against Cruz Azul (MEX) and for entertaining passionate fans while Qatar continues to host incredible football matches“, he said, before concluding:
“Pyramids (EGY) awaits you on Saturday, in the FIFA Challenger Cup. And the winner will face PSG (FRA) to be crowned champion of the FIFA Intercontinental Cup 2025“, concluded Infantino, in a social media post.
Flamengo began their journey in the Club Intercontinental this Wednesday (10), against Cruz Azul. Thus, the Rubro-Negro defeated the Mexican team 2-1, with two goals by Arrascaeta, securing a spot in the semifinal of the world tournament.
Qualified for the Intercontinental semifinal, the Flamengo will face Pyramids (EGY) in search of a spot in the final. In the previous round, the Egyptian team eliminated Al Ahli (SAU) 3-1 on September 23. Thus, with another victory, Mengão reaches the final to face PSG (FRA).
The match between Flamengo and Pyramids takes place this Saturday (13), for the Club Intercontinental semifinal. The match is scheduled for 2 PM (Brasília time), at Al Rayyan Stadium, in Doha, Qatar.
As tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details about the match, through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, Globo (open channel), GE TV (YouTube) and Cazé TV (YouTube) will broadcast the Flamengo game.
