Where to watch the Flamengo vs. Pyramids match live this Saturday, December 13, for the Intercontinental Cup
Flamengo and Pyramids FC will face each other this Saturday, December 13, 2025, to determine the second finalist of the Intercontinental Cup, with Paris Saint-Germain already qualified for the final. The match will be played at the Ahmad bin Ali Stadium in Al Rayyan, Qatar, and will kick off at 2:00 p.m. Uruguay time. The defending Copa Libertadores champion earned the right to compete for a ticket to the final after defeating Mexico's Cruz Azul 2-1, a match in which Giorgian De Arrascaeta scored two goals. For its part, the Egyptian team, champion of the 2024-2025 CAF Champions League, qualified for this stage after defeating Al-Ahli of Saudi Arabia 3-1. The match between the Brazilian and Egyptian teams will be broadcast live in Uruguay and Argentina on DGO, DSPORTS+ Plus (613 1613), and FIFA+. To watch Flamengo vs. Pyramids live in the United States, the match will be broadcast on BEIN Sports and BEIN Sports en Español, as well as on Fanatiz USA and fuboTV. This match between Flamengo and Pyramids was named the Challenger Cup, a single-match playoff that will determine the opponent of Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), winner of the last UEFA Champions League, in the Intercontinental Cup final. This semifinal will test a powerful—albeit fatigued—Mengão and the ambition of the surprising Egyptian team, which has left rivals such as New Zealand's Auckland City and Saudi Arabia's Al Ahli in its wake. The Rio de Janeiro team, champions of the Copa Libertadores and enjoying the most successful season in their history, arrive at the match in high spirits after beating Mexico's Cruz Azul 2-1, thanks to the performance of Giorgian De Arrascaeta, who scored both goals in the victory. The victory not only secured the team's first trophy of the competition, but also reaffirmed Filipe Luís's squad as the clear favorites in their group. Flamengo will have their starting lineup available, although they may not be at their peak performance due to the busy schedule that saw them play three finals (Copa Libertadores, Brazilian Championship, and Derby of the Americas) in less than fifteen days. The added bonus is that Pedro, one of the stars of the season who is recovering from injury, will play a few minutes against Pyramids. "It's great to have Pedro back with us on the field. You can tell he's back with the confidence, joy, and desire he had before injuring his arm," Filipe Luís said at a press conference. Pyramids, led by Croatian Krunoslav Jurčić, is an unknown quantity, which Filipe Luís admitted he had not yet begun to study after the match against Cruz Azul. The Egyptian team, founded in 2008 under a different name and winner of the 2024-25 African Confederation of Football Champions League, comes to the Challenger Cup with Congolese player Fiston Mayele leading the attack, the author of the hat trick against Al Ahli that gave the team its fearless reputation. On the left wing for Pyramids is Brazilian Ewerton da Silva, who spent most of his career playing in the Czech Republic and has recently become a source of advice for his teammates on the eleven players from Rio de Janeiro. The winner of Saturday's match will face PSG in the Intercontinental Cup final, scheduled for December 17. With information from EFE
