Flamengo returns to the field on Thursday night (18), when they face Estudiantes (ARG), for the first leg of the Libertadores quarterfinals. In the competition, Fla had seven different players scoring goals.
Therefore, the race for the top scorer of Flamengo in the Libertadores 2025 is heated. This, of course, is a reflection of the collective strength of the team led by Filipe Luís. So far, Arrascaeta was the only athlete who scored twice in the continental competition.
Furthermore, Bruno Henrique, Pedro, Léo Pereira, De La Cruz, Léo Ortiz, Luiz Araújo and Juninho have one goal (each) scored by Flamengo in the current edition of the Libertadores.
It is important to highlight that, in the 2025 season as a whole, the top scorer of Flamengo is Arrascaeta. The number 10 and captain of the red-black team, so far, scored 18 goals, two of which were in the Libertadores.
Now, Arrascaeta will have the opportunity to further extend the advantage of goals scored by Flamengo in the Libertadores. This is because the midfielder is considered an absolute starter in the team led by Filipe Luís and will start the game against Estudiantes among the 11 starters.
In summary, the Flamengo x Estudiantes game will be broadcast live by ESPN (subscription channel), as well as Disney+ (streaming). In addition, Coluna do Fla TV, on YouTube, covers all the pre and post-match details.
After facing each other at Maracanã on this Thursday (18), Flamengo and Estudiantes will meet again next week, at 9:30 pm (Brasília time).
Thus, on September 25, at Estadio Jorge Luis Hirschi, in Argentina, the teams will play the second leg of the Libertadores quarterfinals.
