Two Libertadores matches take place this Wednesday (16)

The ball keeps rolling in the Copa Libertadores de América. This Wednesday (16), two second-leg quarterfinal matches in the continental competition will be played, with two Brazilian teams in action.

WHICH LIBERTADORES MATCHES ARE ON TODAY?

Palmeiras and LDU face off at 7:00 PM (Brasília time) this Wednesday (16) at Rodrigo Paz Delgado Stadium, in the high altitude of Quito, Ecuador. Paramount+ will broadcast the match. It is worth noting that whoever advances will face Fluminense in the semifinal.

Palmeiras won the first leg at Nubank Parque 1-0 and built a slim advantage for the return match. With that result, the São Paulo side can even draw to reach the Libertadores semifinal once again.

On the other hand, LDU need a one-goal win to take the decision to penalties. If they want to advance in normal time, the home side must win by two goals or more.

WHAT ABOUT CORINTHIANS AND ESTUDIANTES?

Corinthians and Estudiantes face off at 9:30 PM (Brasília time) this Wednesday (16) at Neo Química Arena in São Paulo. The match will be broadcast by TV Globo (free-to-air), Paramount+ (streaming), and GeTV (YouTube).

The first leg, played in Argentina, ended in a 1-1 draw. With that result, whoever wins this Wednesday’s (16) match secures direct qualification to the semifinal.

If the score is tied again, the spot will be decided on penalties. The winner of this tie will move on to face, in the next round, the winner of the clash between Flamengo and Independiente del Valle (ECU).

AND FLAMENGO?

Flamengo continue their journey toward a fifth Libertadores title on Thursday (17). At the Maracanã, the Rubro-Negro side take on Independiente del Valle in the second leg of the quarterfinals. The match starts at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), with full coverage from Coluna do Fla. In addition, ESPN (cable channel) and Disney+ (streaming) will show the game.

The Coluna do Fla team is at the Sacred Temple with Simon Lédo, Rock Hudson, and Rodrigo Lima bringing all the details of the match a few days before the ball starts rolling. So, fans, you have a special invitation to follow the most Rubro-Negro team on the internet on three fronts: YouTube, website, and social media.

Having won the first leg 2-0 in the altitude of Quito, Flamengo come into the decisive clash with a solid advantage. Thus, Rubro-Negro can even lose by one goal at the Maracanã and still advance to the semifinal. However, a loss by two goals or more takes the decision to penalties.
