Arrascaeta sets stunning record after Flamengo v Cusco in Libertadores | OneFootball

Flamengo beat Cusco (PER) 2-0 in the Libertadores with a goal from Arrascaeta

Flamengo’s 2-0 win over Cusco (PER) was especially meaningful for Arrascaeta. That’s because, after coming off the bench on Wednesday (08), the No. 10 reached 370 appearances, becoming the foreign player with the most matches for Mengão. On top of that, the idol also scored a goal at Estadio Garcilaso.

The Uruguayan reached 370 matches wearing the Sacred Shirt, surpassing the 369 by Paraguay’s Modesto Bria. The record was broken during the first round of Group A of the Libertadores.

And what about Arrascaeta’s goal against Cusco?

The greatest foreign player in the history of Mengão now has four goals this year. However, only Wednesday’s (08) came from open play. That’s because, in 2026, the star found the net against Internacional, Madureira, and Lanús (ARG) from the penalty spot.

And what about the other goal against Cusco?

Before the Uruguayan scored, the Peruvians took a shot that struck Lucas Paquetá. It looked like the referee would award a penalty, but the ball had already gone out before the shot. Then, Rossi restarted play quickly, Ayrton Lucas burst forward and crossed for Bruno Henrique to head the ball into the net.

What is Flamengo’s next match?

Back in Brazil, Flamengo have a derby this Saturday (11). Fla-Flu kicks off at 6:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at the Maracanã, in the 11th round of the Brasileirão. Fluminense are the home side.

As always, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details of the match between Flamengo and Cusco through YouTube, the website, and social media. The broadcast, however, is exclusive to Premiere (pay-per-view).
