2026 Supercopa do Brasil
The 2026 Supercopa do Brasil (officially the Supercopa Rei Superbet 2026) was the ninth edition of the annual clash between Brazil's league and cup champions. It featured Flamengo (2025 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A champs) against Corinthians (2025 Copa do Brasil champs), marking their first meeting in the competition since Corinthians won the inaugural 1991 edition—the tournament had been dormant from 1992 to 2019. Held on February 1, 2026, at the Arena BRB Mané Garrincha in Brasília, Corinthians triumphed 2–0 to claim their second Supercopa title. The match had major drama: just before halftime, Flamengo's Jorge Carrascal allegedly elbowed Corinthians' Breno Bidon, and after a halftime review, referee Rafael Klein sent him off before the second half. Additionally, Flamengo played without injured midfielder Saúl, adding to their woes in the defeat.
