Conmebol, organizer of the Libertadores, has also been emphatic in its fight against racism and has already applied sanctions to clubs whose fans were caught carrying out acts of this type in previous matches. In line with this movement, Peñarol reinforced its commitment to an inclusive and respectful sporting environment.


FLAMENGO HAS SUPPORT IN URUGUAY

In recent years, the topic has gained even more relevance in continental competitions, such as the Libertadores, where clubs from different countries face each other and the presence of mass fans can generate tensions. Clubs like Flamengo have already faced situations in which their players were targets of racist attacks in international matches.

Flamengo, which has already spoken out publicly on several occasions on the issue, has a zero tolerance policy towards any racist demonstration. The Brazilian team has also been involved in episodes where its players were victims of racial insults in international competitions. Peñarol's firm stance is seen as a positive step to prevent further incidents from occurring in matches between the two teams.
