Let’s talk about the Copa Libertadores prizes!

Qualification for the semifinals of the Libertadores provided a good financial boost for four Brazilian teams: Palmeiras, Flamengo, Fluminense, and Estudiantes. Together, they secured more R$ 11,8 million in prizes, and the race is getting intense!

Who’s on top?

If there’s someone who’s leaving everyone else behind when it comes to money, it’s the Flamengo! So far, the team has already brought home R$ 40,5 million in prizes. What’s the secret to success? The number of wins in the group stage! After all, CONMEBOL rewards each victory with R$ 1,7 million. The Fla did well and won five matches, securing the best group-stage campaign.

Just behind them is the Palmeiras, with R$ 37,1 million accumulated so far. They also performed strongly, winning three games in the group stage and advancing to the semifinals.

And we can’t forget the Fluminense and the Estudiantes! Both are tied with R$ 35,4 million. Each won only two games in the group stage, but they managed to reach the semifinals.

What’s coming next?

The teams that reach the final will receive, at minimum, R$ 36 million — that’s the prize for the runner-up. Now, if you dream of being the great champion, get ready: the trophy is worth R$ 128,7 million!

The semifinal matches will be:

• Flamengo x Estudiantes
• Palmeiras x Fluminense

The first-leg matches are scheduled for the week of 14 of October, while the return fixtures are planned for the following week.
