With this result, the team led by coach Filipe Luis is already guaranteed a place in the next stage of the competition. This Monday, Flamengo will return to the field to face St. Louis City (USA) at 15:30 pm (Brasília time).
It's worth noting that the tournament, which features clubs from North and South America, Europe, and Asia, has two 2-minute halves. The final will be 30 minutes each, with two 35-minute halves in the event of a tie. If the match continues, a penalty shootout will be held.
