Flamengo and Estudiantes (ARG) faced each other in the quarterfinals of the 2025 Libertadores


Flamengo is making the final adjustments to take on Estudiantes (ARG) this Wednesday (29), in the third round of the Libertadores group stage. In 2025, the teams met in the tournament quarterfinals, and the second leg was marked by the heroic performance of Agustín Rossi.

After a 2-1 win in the first leg at the Maracanã, Flamengo played the decisive clash against Estudiantes in Argentina. The opponent then came out on top 1-0 in regular time, after a mistake by Rossi, and the semifinal spot was decided on penalties. That way, the Rubro-Negro goalkeeper saved two spot kicks and secured Fla’s qualification.

Has Rossi already played for Estudiantes?

An undisputed starter at Flamengo, Agustín Rossi had a short spell at Estudiantes between 2015 and 2017. As part of the club’s under-23 squad, the Argentine only made three appearances for the senior team.

That is because Rossi was loaned to Defensa y Justicia (ARG) in July 2016. Then, after returning to Estudiantes, the goalkeeper was signed by Boca Juniors (ARG) in February 2017.

When do Flamengo and Estudiantes face each other?

With Rossi available, Flamengo remains focused on the Libertadores. This Wednesday (29), Rubro-Negro takes on Estudiantes (ARG) at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at Jorge Luis Hirschi Stadium, in the third round of the continental tournament.

So, as tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details of Flamengo’s match through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, Globo (free-to-air TV) and Paramount+ (streaming) will broadcast the Libertadores match.
