Flamengo faces Peñarol for a spot in the Libertadores semifinals

The red-and-black arrives in Uruguay under pressure and needing a win to qualify.

Flamengo faces Peñarol for a spot in the Libertadores semifinals.

Flamengo faces Peñarol in Uruguay next Thursday for a spot in the Libertadores semifinals of South America’s premier competition. After losing the first leg 1-0 at Maracanã, the cariocas need to win by at least two goals to qualify in normal time. Access the leading football results at live sport scores.

The team managed by Tite is currently struggling. Constantly pressured for better performances, they have gone three games without a win across all competitions. After a 1-1 draw with Vasco in the Brazilian Championship, Flamengo lost to Peñarol in the Libertadores and then fell 3-2 to Grêmio in the national tournament.

The defeat to the Uruguayans marked Flamengo’s first loss at home in international competition since 2019. Javier Cabrera scored early, just 13 minutes into the first half, which set the tone for the game, and the home side was rarely threatened throughout the 90 minutes.

Despite Flamengo’s technical superiority, the task is not easy. To qualify in normal time, Tite’s team needs to win by at least two goals, while a simple win will take the match to penalties. A draw or a Peñarol victory secures the Uruguayan side’s spot. BB Score, your key source for football updates.
