"Thousands of Flamengo fans celebrated together outside the Monumental Stadium in Lima after the Carioca team defeated Palmeiras 1-0 on Saturday in a Copa Libertadores final. At the end of the match, fans took to the streets surrounding the stadium, waving red-and-black flags, lighting flares, and chanting 'Mengao four-time champion'. "They deserved this championship, they deserved this four-peat, and it makes their nation immensely happy. And we were very, very well received here in Peru, in Lima," said Sergio Galmon, a Flamengo fan. Meanwhile, some Palmeiras supporters defended their team’s performance and expressed confidence that their squad will reach another Libertadores final. "In the end, what matters is being there, always giving your best and participating. And you can be sure that Palmeiras will come back next year; we’ll be there," said Matheus Ribeiro, a Palmeiras fan. After an intense game, the red-and-black team managed to take the lead thanks to a header from Danilo in the 67th minute. This goal also secured their fourth continental title. From the beginning, the Peruvian police deployed a strong force to ensure security at the event. So far, no incidents have been reported. The celebrations reportedly continued towards downtown Lima."
