Another record is having the best performance in a single edition of Libertadores. The incident occurred in 2022, when Rubro-Negro became three-time champion of America under the command of Dorival Júnior and had a 94.87% success rate, with 13 games, 12 victorias and only a draw. It is also worth mentioning that Flamengo scored goals in all of the last 30 matches played in the Libertadores, with the sequence starting on July 14, 2021 and continuing until last Wednesday's clash (10), against Palestino.< /p>
