The Flamengo They will need to surpass themselves in every way to seek qualification in the Libertadores. In addition to the unfavorable scenario after the defeat at home, Peñarol's numbers and strength at home also go against it. The Uruguayans have not lost any official game at the Campeón del Siglo Stadium in 2024.

The only defeat at home was in a friendly against San Lorenzo. The score would give Flamengo the place. In July, the Uruguayans lost 2-0 in Montevideo. There are 15 wins and four draws in 19 official matches. This will be Peñarol's fifth game as home team in the Libertadores and the team has a 100% success rate. On top of that, the Aurinegros practically don't concede goals. They conceded five in 19 matches and never more than one goal per game.


The stadium promises to be completely full. All Peñarol fans' tickets were sold and fans even bought them in the Flamengo section. The club took a position warning that it will block anyone with the Uruguayan document. There is a great fear of confusion.


In the games they played this season, Flamengo managed to score the score they needed to qualify 18 times. In 15 opportunities the red-black team scored enough to go to penalties.

Twenty-two of these results happened with Fla as home team. Of the games in which he was a visitor, four were during Carioca (when the team had a majority or equal fans) and seven during the rest of the season (including two classics at Maracanã).


Balanced against Aguirre< /b>

Coach Diego Aguirre knows Brazilian football well. He had spells at Internacional (2015 and 2021), Atlético-MG (2016), São Paulo (2018) and Santos (2023). The coach played nine matches against Fla, with four wins for each side and one draw. In the red and black triumphs, two would lead to a penalty shootout and two would lead to a direct place.

This Wednesday (25), the Flamengo squad finalizes their preparation for the clash against Peñarol, in the Libertadores. Mais Querido needs to win by at least two goals to qualify for the semi-finals. However, the mission will not be easy, as the team does not have a win away from home in the current edition of the competition.

The Flamengo delegation is already in Uruguay, where they are finishing their preparations for the clash against Peñarol this Wednesday (25). Rubro-Negro needs to reverse the Uruguayan team's 1-0 score and to do so the players have to be focused and inspired. This last Tuesday (24), Gerson made a publication about what the stance will be like in the confrontation.

Mais Querido's number 8 shared a photo leaving Ninho do Urubu heading to Galeão International Airport. In the caption, Gerson placed four stickers, in order: brain, cold, heart and fire. The phrase is close to "cold head, warm heart", often used by coach Abel Ferreira.


It can be understood that the emojis published by Gerson are defined as an intense team, giving life on the field, but without losing reason and control. This is because Mais Querido needs to be patient to reverse the score against Peñarol.


FOCUS ON THE DECISION

The red and black squad will finalize their preparation for the Libertadores clash this Wednesday (25), at Ciudad Desportiva Luis Suárez, in the afternoon.


Thus, on Thursday (26), Mais Querido enters the field with the mission of beat Peñarol and qualify for the Libertadores semi-finals. The clash will start at 7pm, at Campeón del Siglo.
