While Flamengo took to the field with full strength in the classic against Vasco, last Saturday (19), LDU, opponent in the Libertadores this Tuesday (22) adopted a different strategy . A day earlier, on Friday (18), the team from Quito faced Aucas , a local rival, with a team full of reserves. Coach Pablo ' Vitamin ' Sánchez's decision was made with an eye on the direct confrontation with Rubro-Negro, in the third round of the group stage of the Libertadores .
Due to the proximity of the game with Flamengo..."
“We understood that it was time to rotate the squad due to the upcoming match against Flamengo . We decided to let some players play, and the three players who debuted and played a great game played well. There is a great competition in the group and I feel very satisfied with the work they did, ” explained the coach after the 3-1 victory.
In the match, only three starters who played in the last Libertadores game, against Deportivo Táchira , were on the field: midfielders Villamil and Ramírez , as well as striker Arce , who was the highlight of the classic with three assists .
The victory over Aucas came at a good time for LDU, who were coming off a setback against Mushuc Runa , away from home, when they were defeated 1-0. Scorer of the first goal in Friday's triumph, midfielder Bryan Ramírez highlighted the importance of the result for the team's morale.
“I think we were a bit unsuccessful in Riobamba (Mushuc Runa’s hometown). But football has revenge and today (Friday) we recovered in a good way. This helps us for the next Libertadores game,” said Ramírez.
Now, LDU's full focus turns to Flamengo . The teams face off this Tuesday (22), at 7 pm (Brasília time), at the Rodrigo Paz Delgado Stadium, in Quito, located at almost 2,900 meters above sea level . The clash is decisive for the continuation of the group stage of the Libertadores, with both teams seeking leadership of Group C.

Flamengo has received a high-value offer from Superbet to fill the master sponsorship slot currently held by Pixbet. The information was released by Poder360. Under the current contract, Pixbet holds the right to match any offer before the club signs a new agreement , thus ensuring the possibility of maintaining the exclusive jersey design.
This clause is included in the contract signed between the parties, which prevents a direct sponsor change without the current partner having the opportunity to match the amounts. It's now up to Pixbet to decide whether to continue with the main sponsorship or make way for Superbet.
Pixbet currently holds the most valuable master sponsorship contract in Brazilian soccer, with staggered annual payments: R$105 million in the first year, R$115 million in the second, and R$125 million in the third . The club also receives bonuses related to FlaBet, which is featured on another part of the kit, reinforcing the importance of partnerships with the betting industry for annual revenue.
The board carefully evaluates all aspects of the proposal, weighing the financial and strategic impact of the change. Ensuring economic stability is seen as essential to maintaining competitiveness in national and international tournaments.
