Three-time champion of Conmebol Libertadores, Flamengo is one of the favorites for the title of the main tournament in South America in 2024. Reactions are mixed from those who will face Mais Querido in the group stage of the competition. On social media, some fans were hopeful and others were already disappointed, predicting what could happen to them. But not everyone wanted to escape Rubro-Negro in the draw for this first stage.
A video circulating on social media shows some Bolívar (BOL) players following the draw and showing different reactions. Some players, like Argentine Pato Rodríguez, ex-Santos, celebrated by saying: "Let's go to Rio"! On the other hand, the two Brazilians in Bolívar's squad seemed worried. Francisco da Costa put his hand to his face, while Bruno Sávio, with his son on his lap, shook his head. CHECK OUT THE VIDEO:
Some fans already They didn't seem that excited. In the tweet below, for example, published in the club's own announcement about its group in the tournament, one of the fans already seemed disappointed in having to compete in the Libertadores instead of the Sudamericana. In his words, "the Libertadores is impossible for Bolivians... the South American is something real" (translation from Spanish).
In addition to the Bolivian team, Mais Querido also fell into the same groups as Millonario (COL) and Palestino (CHI). Reactions were equally mixed. A fan of the Colombian club published a joke that generated repercussions, where he said that his team will celebrate with at least one goal, scored in the 90th minute of the match, even though they lost 5-1 to Flamengo.
In Chile, the reactions were milder, but there were still some complaints.

Argentine goalkeeper Agustín Rossi , who has played for Flamengo since 2023, is in the process of obtaining Brazilian citizenship, raising the possibility of playing for the Brazilian national team in the future. The situation raises questions about the player's eligibility and FIFA's rules for changing nationality.
If Rossi obtains naturalization, he would be eligible to represent Brazil under current sports legislation. The player has not yet played any official matches for the Argentine national team, which would prevent him from making the switch.
In 2020, FIFA relaxed its rules for changing nationality, allowing athletes to play for national teams other than their home country, provided they meet certain criteria. A player can represent another country if, before the age of 21, he or she has played in a maximum of three official matches for the senior national team and has not competed in a World Cup.
Rossi was named in Argentina's official match against Bolivia in a 2022 World Cup qualifier in September 2021, but did not take the field. According to FIFA's governance and eligibility rules:
The striker once again showed his rapport and friendship with his former teammates at Mengão, but the fans were on his back during the match.
