📹 More embarrassment! Flu lose again, bottom in Libertadores

At the altitude of more than 3,000 meters in La Paz, Bolivia, Fluminense lost 2-0 to Bolívar this Thursday (30), in the third round of the 2026 Conmebol Libertadores group stage.

Highlights coming up shortly

The Rio side never managed to find its footing on the pitch and, after conceding five minutes into the match, spent practically the entire game trailing on the scoreboard.

Midfielder Robson Matheus, developed in the youth academies of Palmeiras and Cruzeiro, was the Tricolor's tormentor on the night.

After halftime, in a play where he seemed to mock the referee’s decision by applauding, Facundo Bernal received a second yellow card and left Fluminense with 10 men on the field.

And it didn’t take long for Robson Matheus to appear once again and punish Fábio, who reached 113 matches and became the player with the most appearances in Libertadores history.

🚦 Standings

With two defeats and one draw, Fluminense has just one point and sits bottom of Group C.

Debutant Independiente Rivadavia leads the group with nine points and has all but secured qualification for the round of 16.

Bolívar (four points) and Deportivo La Guaira (two points) complete the group.

The Rio Tricolor is therefore enduring the WORST CAMPAIGN among Brazilian clubs, both in the Libertadores and the Copa Sudamericana, this season.

Atlético-MG (three points) and Santos (two points), who are playing in the Sudamericana, are the ones closest to matching Fluminense’s embarrassment in the Libertadores.

Fluminense returns to action next Sunday (3), when it visits Internacional at Beira-Rio for the 14th round of the Brasileirão.
