Flamengo received the official schedule for the first phase of the Copa Libertadores this Monday. And, contrary to what CONMEBOL had announced, the team's debut will no longer be in Venezuela against Caracas. The Brazilian champions' first match is scheduled for February 24th at the Maracanã stadium, against the winner of the Colón-ARG vs. Universidad Católica match.
 
Rubro-Negro's last appearance in the continent's main tournament was in 2008. On that occasion, the team scored 13 points in the first phase, won its group, but was eliminated in the round of XNUMX by América-MEX.
