"Sleeping giant" of South American football, Peñarol became a threat to Flamengo's stay in the Copa Libertadores -2024 even spending less than 15% of tonight's opponent's payroll.
The Uruguayan team, which has already been continental champion on five occasions, but is currently suffering a 37-year drought in the tournament, spends something on around US$ 800 thousand per month (R$ 4.4 million) with the maintenance of its professional cast. At Flamengo, this money would only be enough to pay Tite's coaching staff and the salary of one of its most expensive players, such as Arrascaeta, Pedro, Bruno Henrique and Gabigol.
Peñarol has already had teams considerably more expensive than the current one. In 2020, before the Covid-19 pandemic, his salary bill exceeded US$1 million per month (R$5.5 million). But the club couldn't pay its bills.
The current president, Ignacio Ruglio, took over at the end of that year precisely with the mission of putting the house in order and providing financial health to the Uruguayan team.
The new management was exchanging expensive players for cheaper athletes and cutting the budget. It also adopted controversial measures, such as cutting the cast's salary in half during a strike that paralyzed Uruguayan football for a month last year.
Good fightDespite the run of five consecutive titles (two with Palmeiras, two more with Flamengo and one with Fluminense), Brazilian football still lags behind Argentina in the number of Libertadores wins: 25 to 23.
And this year the land of Lionel Messi has a golden opportunity to interrupt the recent green and yellow hegemony and increase its clearance as a record holder a little more.
After all, this decision edition is scheduled for Buenos Aires and will be played on November 30 — Monumental Más, home of semi-finalist River Plate, is the favorite stadium to host the title game.

This Thursday, September 26th, Peñarol and Flamengo enter the field to define the last semi-finalist of the Copa Libertadores 2024. The duel takes place at the Campeón del Siglo Stadium, in Montevideo, at 7pm (Brasília time).
The Uruguayan team won the first match in Rio de Janeiro 1-0, with a goal from Javier Cabrera, and arrives at the match with the advantage. Mais Querido needs to win by two or more goals to guarantee classification. If you win by just one goal difference, the match will be decided on penalties.
< /p>
HOW THE TEAMS ARRIVE
Peñarol arrives excited after the victory at Maracanã and rocked by a 5-0 defeat against Cerro, last Sunday, in the Uruguayan Championship. Furthermore, the Carboneros have an unbeaten run of 12 games at the Campeón del Siglo Stadium, which increases the confidence of the team led by Diego Aguirre. The Uruguayan team must repeat the basis that beat Mengão, focusing on defensive balance and quick counterattacks.
On the side of Flamengo, the atmosphere is under pressure. The Rio team is coming off two consecutive defeats, including the defeat in the first game against Peñarol and the defeat to Grêmio (2-3) last weekend, in the Brazilian Championship.
The loss of unbeaten record 28 games at Maracanã in Libertadores weighs heavily, and coach Tite needs to look for quick solutions to reverse the score and guarantee the place. The expectation is around the physical recovery of important players, such as Arrascaeta, and the possible entry of Gabigol in the second half.
The match will be held in Montevideo, at the Campeón del Siglo Stadium
