Flamengo from Brazil defeated their compatriot Palmeiras 1-0 in Peru, and was crowned champion of the Copa Libertadores de América 2025.

In the match held at the Monumental Stadium in the Peruvian capital of Lima, defender Danilo scored the only goal at 22 minutes into the second half.

With this result, Filipe Luis's team claims their fourth Copa Libertadores and becomes the most successful Brazilian team in history, surpassing the three titles of Santos, Gremio, Palmeiras, and São Paulo.

Now, Flamengo will seek to conquer the Brasileirao where they lead with 75 points, five ahead of Palmeiras, with two matches remaining. On Wednesday at 21:30, they will host Ceará at the Maracanã Stadium in Rio de Janeiro and, if they win, they will be crowned champions of Brazilian football.

Meanwhile, the team of Portuguese coach Abel Ferreira was on the verge of their fourth Copa Libertadores, something that hasn't happened since 2000 when they lost the final to Boca in São Paulo.

Next Wednesday at 21:30, in parallel with Flamengo, they will face Atlético Mineiro as visitors. Palmeiras must win and hope that 'Mengao' does not win at the Maracanã Stadium in Rio de Janeiro.
