When Did Flamengo Win Their First Libertadores in Lima?

Before 2025, Flamengo had already won a Libertadores title in Lima, Peru. In 2019, the team led by Jorge Jesus staged one of the greatest comebacks in the history of the tournament.

That’s because, after trailing 1-0 to River Plate (ARG), Gabigol scored two goals in five minutes and turned the final around for Flamengo. Thus, in 2019, Flamengo secured their second Libertadores championship.

What Is Flamengo’s Next Match?

Four-time Libertadores champions, Flamengo return to the field this Wednesday (03) to face Ceará. The match will take place at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at Maracanã, for the 37th round of the Brasileirão. If they win, Mengão will secure the national championship title.

Thus, as tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details about the match through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, Globo (broadcast TV), GE TV (YouTube), and SporTV (cable channel) will broadcast the Flamengo vs Ceará match.
