Overview
- Flamengo advanced 1-0 on aggregate after a goalless second leg at El Cilindro, capitalizing on its first-leg win in Rio.
- Goalkeeper Agustín Rossi was widely credited as the decisive figure in preserving Flamengo’s clean sheet.
- Racing earned $9,557,300 in CONMEBOL prize money, with small deductions for discipline, but missed out on $7 million for runner-up and $24 million for the champion.
- Flamengo will play the final on November 29 in Lima, pursuing a fourth Libertadores title and a third since 2019.
- Racing sits sixth in Argentina’s annual table with three league matches left, and given the allocation of domestic berths and the Copa Argentina final on November 5, its realistic route is winning the Clausura rather than relying on a complex results mix.
