Having scored the first goal in the 2-0 victory over Internacional , Arrascaeta is enjoying one of the best moments of his career. The Uruguayan number 10 has reached 15 goals this season, along with 11 assists , figures that place him as the sole leader among Flamengo 's top scorers in 2025.
" I'm happy to be able to help the team, whether with a goal or an assist. On the field, that's the most important thing for me. I'm happy, I'm able to get into the box and score. However, the most important thing was to come out with the qualification," said the midfielder after the match at Beira-Rio.
With the victory at Beira-Rio, the Red-Blacks confirmed their place in the quarterfinals of the Copa Libertadores and will face Estudiantes-ARG. In addition to Arrascaeta's goal, Pedro scored the second after a cross from Luiz Araújo, the team's second-highest scorer in 2025. Even with more than 43,000 fans in attendance, the Colorados were unable to convert the pressure into goals and were eliminated.
The Gaucho team fought back but struggled to overcome the red-and-black defense. Players like Enner Valencia and Ricardo Mathias had opportunities, but were thwarted by Rossi's defensive solidity and saves, who held on without any major scares.
With the victory, Mengão remains firm in its search for another international title. The team returns to the field next Monday (25), when it faces Vitória in the Brazilian Championship , before beginning preparations for the decisive clash against Estudiantes, valid for the quarterfinals of the Libertadores.

Flamengo qualified for the quarterfinals of the Copa Libertadores after defeating Internacional 2-0. The match started evenly, with Internacional trying to press in the opening minutes. Despite this, the home team failed to convert possession into clear-cut chances. Flamengo capitalized on a mistake by goalkeeper Rochet and opened the scoring with Arrascaeta , who finished into the net after a play initiated by Samuel Lino and Plata.
The Uruguayan, the season's standout, reached 15 goals and 11 assists in 2025, playing a key role in the team's campaign. In the final stage, Flamengo controlled the pace and exploited counterattacks effectively.
Pedro extended the lead after a corner kick from Luiz Araújo, capitalizing on a deflection from Léo Pereira to score the second. Internacional still tried to fight back, even hitting the post with a shot from Borré, but were thwarted by the opponent's solid defense and a strong performance from Rossi.
Despite the support of more than 43,000 fans at Beira-Rio, Colorado failed to convert its crowd into offensive effectiveness. Roger Machado's changes barely changed the game's complexion. Enner Valencia and Ricardo Mathias had chances but were unable to overcome the red-and-black defense.
With a 2-0 victory, the Rio de Janeiro team secures a spot in the quarterfinals of the Copa Libertadores and keeps alive the hope of expanding its international trove of achievements. The team now turns its attention to the season's upcoming matches , buoyed by the consistency and confidence gained in this qualification.
