📹 Fla win again, knock out Inter and reach Libertadores quarter-finals
On Wednesday (20), Flamengo defeated Internacional 2-0 at Beira-Rio, in the second leg of the round of 16 of the Conmebol Libertadores. Having won the first leg 1-0 at Maracanã (3-0 on aggregate), Rubro-Negro secured a spot in the quarterfinals of the continent's main club tournament. Better moments in a moment Before the ball rolled, there was everything. There was the traditional and beautiful party of the colorado fans with the streets on fire! And there was also an incredible rain of confetti that delayed the start of the match by 20 minutes. + Hasty confetti rain guarantees temporary meme ⚽ The game With the ball rolling, what was seen was a team totally aware of its technical and tactical superiority against another that sought, without any organization, to overcome the disadvantage in the first leg. Flamengo completely dominated the actions, with an incredible 62% ball possession and special highlight for Jorginho, who was sovereign in the midfield and the "voice" of coach Filipe Luís inside the four lines. Spanish player Saúl also had a standout role in the first half, forming a duo with Jorginho in the midfield. Such superiority was reflected in the score. In a great collective play, with Bruno Henrique "opening the game" on the left for Samuel Lino and a bizarre mistake by Rochet, Arrascaeta put Flamengo in the lead, after an assist by Gonzalo Plata. Inter, on the other hand, showed itself to be extremely fragile in the offensive sector. No tactical organization, no creation of plays, which left goalkeeper Rossi as a mere spectator. After the interval, Flamengo maintained control of the game, leaving the colorado team absolutely "under control". Just like in the initial stage, Bruno Henrique had a goal disallowed for offside. In the final stretch, Internacional tried to equalize in any way and hit Rossi's post after a finish by Borré. However, in the last minute of regular time, Luiz Araújo crossed from the left, Léo Pereira gave a slight deviation in the area, and Pedro completed for the empty goal to increase the lead.🚦 How it stands With the classification, Flamengo will face Estudiantes in the quarterfinals. The first game will be at Maracanã, with the return being played in La Plata, Argentina. By advancing to the next phase in the Libertadores, the rubro-negro club pocketed an additional $1.7 million (approximately R$ 9.3 million) as a prize from Conmebol. The quarterfinals will take place on the weeks of September 16 and 23. The grand final of the tournament will be on November 29, at the Estádio Monumental de Lima, in Peru, where the cariocas were Libertadores champions in 2019. Internacional returns to the field next Saturday (23), when they visit Cruzeiro, at Mineirão, for the 21st round of the Brasileirão, where they occupy 12th place with 24 points. Leader Flamengo, with 43 points, will only enter the field on Monday (25), when they receive Vitória, at Maracanã. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.

LLWS: South Carolina rallies for stunning walk-off win after trailing 6-1 in final inning, stays alive for U.S. championship game
Facing elimination at the Little League World Series Wednesday night, South Carolina appeared to be done. But the team from the Columbia suburb of Irmo didn't quit after giving up five runs to South Dakota in the top of the extra seventh inning to dig a 6-1 deficit. South Carolina responded with six runs of its own in the bottom of seventh to secure a 7-6 walk-off win and stay alive in the LLWS. Now it's three wins away from a LLWS championship. [Join or create a Yahoo Fantasy Football league for the 2025 NFL season] South Carolina had to mount multiple rallies to advance. South Dakota held a 1-0 lead heading into the bottom of the sixth inning, the final half-inning of regulation. South Carolina was down to its final out with runners on first and second. A Ryder Tillitz line-drive single loaded the bases, but didn't score a run. But Jacob Gibson worked a full-count walk to secure the game-tying run, ultimately sending the game to extras tied at 1-1. [Complete Little League World Series results] There, chaos ensued. South Dakota scored a one-out run to take a 2-1 advantage before a Connor Felderman line drive for the second out. From there, South Dakota scored four two-out runs to seemingly take control of the game. But South Carolina scored three runs before recording its first out of the bottom of the seventh, cutting South Dakota's lead to 6-4 on a bases-loaded walk. Then, with one out, Brady Westbrooks secured another bases-loaded walk on five pitches to cut the deficit to 6-5, setting Andrew Bogan for his walk-off heroics. Bogan sent a 2-2 pitch down the right-field line that snuck just under the glove of diving right fielder Grayson Rehfeldt. Two runs scored, and the South Carolina benches cleared as players rushed to the field to celebrate the walk-off win. The stunning rally spelled heartbreak for South Dakota, whose LLWS is over with the elimination-game loss. South Carolina advances to another elimination game on Thursday against Las Vegas, Nevada. The winner of that game advances to face Fairfield, Connecticut for the U.S. championship. The winner between those two teams will advance to face the International winner for LLWS championship.
