Flamengo faces Boca Juniors (ARG) this Friday (17) in Buenos Aires, Argentina

It’s a day for the Pride of the Nation on the court! This Friday (17), Flamengo takes on Boca Juniors (ARG) at Obras Sanitarias Stadium in Buenos Aires, Argentina, with a spot in the Basketball Champions League Americas (BCLA) final on the line. Tip-off is at 9:40 PM (Brasília time).

The single-game semifinal will be broadcast on BCLA Americas’ YouTube channel. In addition, Coluna do Fla will publish the result and the main highlights of the matchup on its website and social media.

WHAT ABOUT THE OTHER SEMIFINAL?

On the other side of the bracket, Franca faces Nacional of Uruguay at 5:40 PM (Brasília time) this Friday (17). That increases the chances of an all-Brazilian final in the continent’s top basketball tournament, which grants a spot in the FIBA Intercontinental Cup.

WHAT ABOUT THE FINAL?

The BCLA grand final takes place this Saturday (18) at 9:40 PM (Brasília time). In addition, the third-place game will be played a little earlier, at 5:40 PM (Brasília time). Both matchups will be broadcast on BCLA Americas’ YouTube channel.

WHAT IS THE BCLA?

The BCLA, a tournament launched in 2019 by the International Basketball Federation (FIBA), is the top interclub competition in the Americas (excluding the U.S. and Canada). It also grants a place in the Intercontinental Cup, the basketball club world championship.

IS FLAMENGO THE DEFENDING CHAMPION?

Flamengo is the two-time defending BCLA champion. The Rubro-Negro won the most recent Americas Champions League title in April 2025 by beating Boca Juniors in the final. As a result, the 2026 semifinal marks a rematch of last season’s final, once again putting the teams face to face in a major showdown.
