Flamengo has carved its name even deeper into continental history, becoming the first Brazilian club to win the Copa Libertadores four times after a tense victory over rivals Palmeiras.

The triumph not only electrified supporters across Brazil but also coincided with a noticeable uptick in activity surrounding the Flamengo Fan Token (MENGO), as traders responded to the team’s latest milestone.

Flamengo Crowned Four-Time Kings of South America

A cagey first half gave way to high drama after the break, with former Real Madrid and Manchester City defender Danilo delivering the decisive moment. Rising to meet a Giorgian de Arrascaeta corner, his header into the bottom corner in the 67th minute sealed Flamengo’s place in history.

Palmeiras nearly forced a late twist when Victor Roque fired over from close range, while Everton came inches from doubling Flamengo’s advantage in stoppage time. The win cemented Filipe Luis’ status as one of the rare figures to lift the Libertadores both as a player and coach, having previously won the trophy with Flamengo in 2019 and 2022.

As champions, Flamengo earned $24 million in prize money and booked their place in the 2029 Club World Cup, where they previously made headlines after defeating Chelsea in the revamped tournament’s group stage earlier this year.

Price Performance: MENGO Token Reacts to Fan Frenzy

Following Flamengo’s victory, the Flamengo Fan Token ($MENGO) saw a rise in market engagement despite a slight pullback in price. Today, $MENGO trades at $0.08503, reflecting a -3.22% decline in the past 24 hours and -0.59% over the past week. Yet, beneath the surface, trader enthusiasm is clearly building.

The 24-hour trading volume reached $187,127, an 11.20% increase compared to the previous day, signalling a renewed rush of fan-driven activity immediately following the Libertadores triumph. With a circulating supply of 14 million tokens, $MENGO’s market cap now sits at approximately $1.18 million.

Weekly Chart Shows Sharp Swings Amid Championship Weekend

The weekly chart illustrates a relatively stable price pattern through late November, followed by a sudden spike in volatility around match day. Prior to the final, $MENGO traded narrowly between the mid-$0.08 and low-$0.09 range. The hours surrounding the match saw heightened price swings, captured clearly in the chart’s steep dip and subsequent rebound, coinciding with rising trading volume at the bottom of the graph.

Although the price ultimately corrected downward in the 24 hours after the match, the surge in volume points to growing trader engagement, a pattern often seen when clubs achieve major milestones that energize fan bases.

Fan Sentiment Fueling Market Movements

Flamengo’s fourth Libertadores title naturally ignited a wave of celebration, and the digital asset tied to the club reflected that excitement. Even with short-term price fluctuations, the increased trading volume suggests that supporters and speculators alike are re-entering the market, positioning the $MENGO token for potentially more reactive movement as Flamengo prepares for its intercontinental commitments.

If the club continues its winning momentum, the $MENGO Fan Token may see further activity, proof once again that in the world of fan tokens, passion doesn’t stay on the pitch; it spills directly into the market.
