Flamengo Faces Santiago Wanderers (CHI) in the Libertadores U-20 Final

Flamengo is in the final of the Libertadores U-20 for the third consecutive time. This Sunday (22), the Rubro-Negro faces Santiago Wanderers (CHI), competing for the continental title. For the final, Conmebol has set the time: the match kicks off at 6:30 PM (Brasília time), at the Banco Guayaquil Stadium in Quito, Ecuador.

HOW DID FLAMENGO REACH THE FINAL?

The spot in the final came with a 2-1 victory over Olimpia (PAR) this Thursday (19), at the Banco Guayaquil Stadium in Quito, Ecuador. With the result, the Rubro-Negro team confirmed their qualification and maintained a positive streak in the competition, after finishing the group stage as the leader of Group A.

In the match, the team built the result with high-level goals. First, Ryan Roberto opened the scoring with a great individual play. However, shortly after, Daniel Sales brought down the opponent inside the area, and the referee awarded a penalty.

Thus, Faustino Barone struck hard to the right corner of Léo Nannetti, who could do nothing. In the second half, Pablo Lúcio, who had just come on, scored with a precise finish, securing the victory and qualification.

IS FLAMENGO AIMING FOR A THIRD TITLE?

As the current two-time champion of the Libertadores U-20, Flamengo is heading into another final with momentum. In 2024, the Garotos do Ninho defeated Boca Juniors (ARG) 2-1 in the final. Additionally, in 2025, the team lifted the trophy again by beating Palmeiras on penalties, after a 1-1 draw in regular time.
