What result gives Flamengo the Recopa title?


Flamengo needs to beat Lanús (ARG) by at least two goals to win the Recopa. The Most Beloved, however, hasn't managed a comeback in a knockout stage since 2022. Therefore, the Rubro-Negro needs to break this taboo if they want to claim the champion's sash.

The last time Flamengo managed to overturn a deficit in a knockout match was against Atlético-MG, in the Copa do Brasil. At that time, the Most Beloved beat the team from Minas Gerais 2-0 at Maracanã and advanced to the next stage.
