Flamengo’s victory over Corinthians brought impressive numbers for Globo on free-to-air TV. Broadcast last Sunday (13), the match from the 27th round of the 2026 Brasileirão reached 26 rating points in Rio de Janeiro.
In addition, the broadcast recorded a 41% share among televisions turned on in the state capital. As a result, the match stood out in the network’s programming during the late-afternoon time slot.
Flamengo beat Corinthians 2-1 and, with the result, held on to the top spot in the 2026 Brasileirão. The clash took place between 5:30 p.m. and 7:28 p.m. (Brasília time), the period in which Globo posted the broadcast’s top figures.
The numbers released by Ibope also show the match performed strongly in Greater São Paulo. In the region, the clash between Flamengo and Corinthians reached 19 rating points.
On the other hand, the share reached 31% among televisions that were on. Thus, the game also managed to attract a significant portion of the São Paulo audience on Sunday afternoon (13). It is worth noting that Flamengo has the fifth-largest fan base in São Paulo, according to recent surveys.
The network, however, did not rely only on free-to-air TV to bring the match to the public. Grupo Globo also made the clash available through other platforms. After all, the match between Flamengo and Corinthians was also broadcast on Premiere, the pay-per-view service, and on GETV through YouTube.
It wasn’t only Globo that was grinning from ear to ear with Flamengo’s victory and lead in the Brasileirão. That is because Coluna do Fla’s YouTube broadcast drew more than 545,000 viewers, even with competition from free-to-air TV. In midweek, against Del Valle (ECU) in the Libertadores, the numbers were close to 2 million.

And when the team is doing well, then... No one can stop it. There’s more ratings success coming between now and the end of the season — opined Pedro Paulo Catonho, a journalist for Coluna do Fla.
