Antony falou sobre Neymar na seleção brasileira (Divulgação/Facebook Real Betis)
O atacante Antony retornou à seleção brasileira com o técnico italiano Carlo Ancelotti, que anunciou a sua primeira convocação de 25 jogadores, visando os duelos contra Equador e Paraguai, pelas Eliminatórias, que acontecem nos dias 5 e 10 de junho, respectivamente. Além dele, outros jogadores também voltaram a ser chamados, como Casemiro, Richarlison e Andreas Pereira, por exemplo. Do futebol brasileiro, sete nomes foram lembrados: Hugo Souza, Danilo, Léo Ortiz, Wesley, Alex Sandro, Gerson e Estêvão.
A principal ausência, porém, foi do atacante Neymar, do Santos. O craque estava na pré-lista e poderia voltar a vestir a Amarelinha, mas acabou ficando de fora. Sua última partida pelo Brasil foi em outubro de 2023, quando sofreu uma grave lesão contra o Uruguai. Desde então, nunca mais conseguiu ter sequência na carreira, seja atuando pelo Al-Hilal, quanto pelo Alvinegro Praiano, onde retornou no início desse ano buscando justamente voltar a jogar com frequência.
Neymar pode decidir a Copa do Mundo
Em uma entrevista concedida ao “De cara com o cara”, exibido pela Romário TV, no Youtube, Antony falou sobre seleção e sobre a possível volta por cima do santista, que conviveu com diversas lesões nos últimos anos. Primeiro, o ex-jogador Romário disse que se o Neymar estiver 100% na próxima Copa do Mundo, o Brasil tem grandes chances de ganhar. Então, ele perguntou para o atacante do Betis se ele concordava com essa afirmação.
O jogador, por sua vez, disse que sim, usando o jogo contra a Croácia, no último mundial, como exemplo. Embora a seleção brasileira tenha sido eliminada, Antony relembrou que o craque foi decisivo, marcando um gol na prorrogação. “O Neymar é um cara que eu nunca vi igual, o talento que ele tem, a facilidade de driblar, de fazer as coisas com a direita, com a esquerda.”, disse o atacante do Betis sobre o santista.
Importância para os outros jogadores
Na sequência, Romário questiona Antony se os jogadores que estão na seleção têm essa consciência de que Neymar é o cara que pode decidir a próxima Copa do Mundo para o Brasil. Então, ele diz que sim, comentando que os outros jogadores olham diferente para o craque: “com certeza, todo jogador quando olha o Neymar na seleção sabe que ele é o cara, o cara que vai resolver. A gente está ali para ajudar, mas sabemos da qualidade individual dele.”, pontuou.
Próximos jogos da seleção brasileira
Comandada por Carlo Ancelotti, a seleção brasileira volta a campo no dia 5 de junho, às 20h (de Brasília), diante do Equador, fora de casa. Depois, no dia 10, às 21h45, encara o Paraguai, na Neo Química Arena. As duas partidas são válidas pelas Eliminatórias. Em quarto lugar na competição, com 21 pontos, a seleção pentacampeã do mundo pode garantir vaga na próxima Copa já nesta Data Fifa, caso vença os seus jogos ou em caso de tropeços da Bolívia e Venezuela.

In Mary Earps’ departure, Sarina Wiegman faces the toughest challenge of her England tenure
Sarina Wiegman is not afraid of making big decisions.After the Netherlands’ second group-stage game of an ultimately victorious 2017 European Championship, she dropped her captain, Mandy van den Berg, for the rest of the tournament.The England boss did not recall former England captain Steph Houghton for the 2023 World Cup, despite external pressure.AdvertisementMary Earps’ shock retirement announcement, five weeks before England defend their European Championship title in Switzerland, is a different matter, though. The Athletic reported that Wiegman had told Earps she would not be England’s No 1.This time, the shoe is on the other foot. Wiegman was not the decision-maker. Parallels can be drawn with Rachel Daly’s decision to retire in April 2024, the morning after she played four minutes of England’s Euro 2025 qualifying win against the Republic of Ireland.Wiegman had hoped Earps would play an “important role within […]

Liam Delap to Chelsea: How he plays, how he’ll fit in and what he’ll bring to Maresca’s side
The chase for Liam Delap’s signature appears to be over.The Athletic reported on Thursday that Chelsea have reached an agreement over his transfer. A relegation release clause of £30million means that Delap is available at a very affordable price.In a season of struggle at Ipswich Town, the 22-year-old was one of the few players in a blue shirt who stood out in Europe’s strongest league. His attributes have been in demand this summer, with a long line of clubs forming a queue for Delap’s services.Having scored 33 per cent of Ipswich’s league goals — the fourth-highest share of any player — Delap has often been tasked with generating his own chances with limited service from his team-mates.In a counter-attacking Ipswich side, Delap’s powerful, driving runs forward have been a theme of his season as he has shouldered much of the […]
