Match is part of Flamengo’s mid-season break in Portugal

This Wednesday (08), the Most Beloved will play the second friendly of its mid-season break in Portugal. So, check out all the details about Flamengo’s game today against Lausanne Sport (SUI), starting at 4:30 p.m. Brasília time.

How does Flamengo arrive?

In short, Flamengo opened its mid-season break in Portugal with a 2-2 draw against River Plate (ARG) last Friday (03). For the rubro-negro side, Samuel Lino and Bruno Henrique scored the goals. Now, the Most Beloved is looking to fine-tune formations and test tactical alternatives before wrapping up the trip to Europe.

It is worth noting that, despite the elimination of all the national teams involving Flamengo players at the World Cup, the Most Beloved still faces the challenge of nine absences due to call-ups. Therefore, Leonardo Jardim has been using the mid-season break in Portugal to take a closer look at Fla’s academy youngsters and evaluate backups during the preparation period.

That is because the main objective of Flamengo’s European mid-season break is to get the players back into rhythm for the return of the Brasileirão and the continuation of the Copa Libertadores. The idea was to avoid leaving the rubro-negro players too long without playing during the World Cup break.

What about Lausanne Sport?

On the other hand, Lausanne Sport ended the 2025-2026 season inconsistently, alternating good moments in the Conference League with struggles in the Super League. At the moment, the Swiss team’s main new development is on the bench.

That is because, in April, Lausanne Sport sacked German coach Peter Zeidler and finished the domestic league with an interim duo in charge (Markus Neumayr and Migjen Basha). However, in June, the Swiss club’s board announced the signing of Slovenian manager Luka Elsner.
