Bruno Henrique’s Flamengo and Raphael Veiga’s Palmeiras face off in the Libertadores final this Saturday (29th)


Palmeiras fans like to remember that Raphael Veiga is the club’s top scorer in finals, but they forget that, on the Flamengo side, there is Bruno Henrique, the greatest winner in the history of the Rubro-Negro. The teams will decide the Libertadores final this Saturday (29th).

Both are extremely decisive, but when it comes to the Libertadores, Bruno Henrique has the edge. That’s because, with fewer matches, the Flamengo player has more goal involvements in the tournament’s knockout stages.
