Flamengo face 18 matches and 28,000 km of travel before the World Cup | OneFootball

In the Libertadores, Flamengo will have a match at high altitude in Peru before the World Cup

The World Cup will cause a pause in club competitions. Until then, however, Flamengo will face a marathon of matches and travel. That is because the Rubro-Negro have the Brasileirão, the Libertadores and the Copa do Brasil, which adds up to 18 matches and 27,660 km traveled.

However, the Most Beloved may have one more match if the game against Mirassol is scheduled before the World Cup. The clash, at the Maracanã, had to be postponed because of the Recopa Sudamericana.

What are Flamengo’s trips?

Of the 18 scheduled matches, eight will require leaving Rio de Janeiro, with the longest trips taking place in the Libertadores. To play against Independiente Medellín in Colombia, Fla will have a journey of 9,586 km. To face Cusco in Peru, the Rubro-Negro will travel 6,406 km.

However, visiting the Peruvian club also means playing at an altitude of 3,399 meters. The total of 27,660 km, though, includes round trips to and from Rio de Janeiro. Within Brazil, the longest route is the 2,262 km that separate the Marvelous City from Porto Alegre, where the squad will face Grêmio.

And what does Flamengo’s upcoming schedule look like?

How is Flamengo doing right now?
