Flamengo match helps SporTV set a 2026 record | OneFootball

Flamengo and Athletico drew 1-1 at Arena da Baixada in the 16th round of the Brasileirão

Even those who are not Flamengo supporters watch Flamengo matches. As a result, the Most Beloved set a record for viewership on SporTV this season. On that occasion, Mengo drew 1-1 with Athletico-PR at Arena da Baixada in the 16th round of the Brasileirão.

More than 12 million people watched the Brazilian Championship matches last weekend on SporTV, GE TV, and Premiere channels. The 1-1 draw on Sunday (16), however, recorded the highest ratings on the pay TV schedule in 2026.

Why did the clash attract so much attention?

The context was that a Fla victory over the Paraná side would have narrowed the gap between second and first place in the Brasileirão. However, Mengo squandered the chance and remained four points behind Palmeiras, who have played one more match.

Were there many fans at the stadium?

In addition to the television record, Arena da Baixada posted its highest financial mark of the year. The venue generated revenue of R$ 2,625,020.00 from the 34,197 people in attendance at the sports venue in Curitiba.

What is Flamengo’s next match?

Back at home, Flamengo will face Estudiantes (ARG) this Wednesday (20). Kickoff is set for 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at the Maracanã, in the fifth round of Group A of the Libertadores.

Thus, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details of the clash through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, Globo (free-to-air TV), GE TV (YouTube), and Paramount+ (streaming) will broadcast the Libertadores match.
