Flamengo to Face Palmeiras in the Libertadores Final

On Thursday (30th), Flamengo learned who they will face in the Libertadores final. At Allianz Parque, Palmeiras defeated LDU (EQU) 4-0 and secured their spot in the title fight. Flamengo's coach, Filipe Luís, described the final as the biggest challenge of his career.

— Without a doubt. I live a daily challenge here at the club, with immense pressure. I enjoy this moment of privilege sitting in this chair. Before arriving here, I was a Flamengo fan since childhood and had only reached one final. Since I arrived, this is the fifth -, he said, before concluding:

— Whether by luck or merit, I am part of the best moment in the club's history. And I have to enjoy it. Regardless of better or worse moments, for me, leading my team in the Libertadores final is a great privilege -, concluded Filipe Luís.

Has Filipe Luís Already Won the Libertadores?

It is worth noting that Filipe Luís knows what it means to be a Libertadores champion. After all, as a left-back, the coach lifted the trophy twice: 2029 and 2022. This could be the first time he wins the continental tournament as a coach.

Since joining Flamengo in October 2024, after Tite's dismissal, Filipe Luís has won three titles: Copa do Brasil, Supercopa do Brasil, and Campeonato Carioca. Thus, the coach seeks to expand his coaching resume with his first Libertadores.

When Will the Libertadores Final Be?

Flamengo and Palmeiras will face each other on November 29th, at the Estadio Monumental in Lima, Peru. However, Conmebol has not yet set the time for the big decision.

What Is Flamengo's Next Game?

While waiting for the Libertadores final, Flamengo begins preparations for their next game. Thus, this Saturday (01), the Rubro-Negro will face Sport at 9 PM (Brasília time), at Maracanã, for the 31st round of the Brasileirão.

As tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will provide the best internet coverage through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, SporTV (closed channel) and Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the Flamengo vs. Sport game.
