Flamengo qualified for the quarterfinals of the 2025 Libertadores. This is because the team led by Filipe Luís won both the first leg (1-0) and the second leg (2-0) against Internacional. With this, five teams have already secured their spots in the next phase of the South American tournament so far.
In summary, the Libertadores of America began to reveal the qualified teams and the matchups for the quarterfinals last Tuesday (19). The first club to secure a spot was Vélez Sarsfield (ARG), who eliminated Fortaleza after a 2-0 victory in Argentina. Additionally, another Argentine team, Racing (ARG), ousted Peñarol (URU).
Meanwhile, São Paulo eliminated Atlético Nacional (COL). Therefore, an Argentine classic is already guaranteed in the quarterfinals of the Libertadores. This is because Vélez Sarsfield and Racing will face each other in the next phase. The São Paulo team awaits the winner of the matchup between LDU (EQU) and Botafogo.
On Wednesday (20), two more teams qualified for the quarterfinals of the Libertadores. In summary, Flamengo eliminated Internacional at Beira-Rio. On the other hand, Estudiantes de La Plata (ARG) ousted Cerro Porteño (PAR). Now, the Most Beloved will face the Argentine team in the next phase of the tournament.
It's important to remember that there are still three spots available for the quarterfinals of the Libertadores. Thus, the round of 16 continues in full swing this Thursday (21), with three matches. LDU faces Botafogo at 7:00 PM (Brasília time). Then, starting at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), River Plate (ARG) takes on Libertad (PAR), while Palmeiras hosts Universitario (PER) at Allianz Parque.
