Find out where to watch Flamengo v Lausanne Sport in Portugal | OneFootball

Flamengo is playing a series of matches in Portugal during the World Cup

Estádio Algarve, in Portugal, hosts the clash between Flamengo and Lausanne Sport (SUI) this Wednesday (08). The match, valid for the Algarve Trophy, represents the Rubro-Negro side’s second challenge during the mid-season break held during the calendar pause for the 2026 World Cup.

The match will be broadcast by Band on free-to-air TV. In addition, SporTV (cable TV), Premiere (pay-per-view), and Bandplay (streaming) will also show the game.

WHAT ABOUT COLUNA DO FLA?

As usual, Coluna do Fla will broadcast Lausanne Sport vs Flamengo live on YouTube. The most Rubro-Negro team on the internet follows every step of Mengão every day, bringing news, interviews, behind-the-scenes content, and everything involving the Most Beloved.

In addition to showing the match, Coluna do Fla is in Portugal with on-site coverage. Simon Lédo and Rock Hudson are sending exclusive details from the mid-season break directly from Lagos, where the squad is using the facilities of the Cascade Wellness Resort.

HOW IS FLAMENGO COMING INTO THE MATCH?

Flamengo opened the European tour with a 2-2 draw against River Plate (ARG), in a match that featured goals from Samuel Lino and Bruno Henrique. Now, the group is looking to fine-tune formations and test tactical alternatives before wrapping up its time in Europe.

It is worth noting that Flamengo faces this challenge with nine absences due to World Cup call-ups. Even so, the squad gives Leonardo Jardim the chance to observe youth academy players and assess backups during the preparation period. The main objective is to give the players match fitness for the return of the Brasileirão and the continuation of the Copa Libertadores.

AND LAUSANNE SPORT?

On the other side, Lausanne-Sport finished the 2025/2026 season inconsistently, alternating good moments in the Conference League with difficulties in the Super League. That is because the Swiss team underwent changes in the coaching staff in April and is currently working under Markus Neumayr and Migjen Basha.

WILL FLAMENGO PLAY ANOTHER FRIENDLY IN PORTUGAL?

After this Wednesday’s (08) match against Lausanne Sport, the Rubro-Negro squad will end its stay in Portugal with one final test. Thus, the last match in this series takes place on July 11, against Benfica (POR).

This match marks the end of the training period on European soil. After returning to Brazil, Flamengo will still play one more friendly, against Olimpia (PAR), on July 17, in Brasília.

Finally, the return to official matches takes place on July 22, against Chapecoense, at Arena Condá, in the Brazilian Championship. Until then, the coaching staff will make the most of every minute of this mid-season break to consolidate the playing model and prepare the squad for the crucial challenges of the second half of the season.
