Igor Jesus comemora gol do Botafogo contra o PSG (Vitor Silva/Botafogo)
O apresentador festejou o histórico triunfo botafoguense por 1 a 0 sobre o Paris Saint-Germain, com o gol da vitória marcado pelo atacante
Milton Neves repercutiu a heroica vitória do Botafogo nesta quinta-feira (19). Com um gol de Igor Jesus no primeiro tempo, o Fogão derrotou por 1 a 0 o poderoso PSG pela segunda rodada da fase de grupos da Copa do Mundo de Clubes da Fifa. Em seu blog no UOL, o colunista enalteceu o resultado emblemático diante da poderosa equipe que venceu a Uefa Champions League há menos de um mês.
Inicialmente, chamou atenção para as duas goleadas que o time francês comandado por Luis Enrique aplicou recentemente sobre a Inter de Milão na final da Liga dos Campeões e na estreia no Mundial diante do Atlético de Madrid. “Vinha de resultados simplesmente absurdos”, observou Miltão.
Milton Neves enalteceu Igor Jesus e Marlon Freitas
Ao exaltar os jogadores do Botafogo no triunfo obtido no mítico Rose Bowl, o jornalista deu um destaque especial para Igor Jesus, indicando o centroavante para a seleção brasileira. “Alô, Ancelotti!”, exclamou Milton Neves, além de abrir parênteses para o volante botafoguense Marlon Freitas: “Que jogador!”.
Além disso, o comunicador recordou dos prognósticos pessimistas que apontavam para uma derrota do Glorioso. “O futebol mostrou, mais uma vez, que não é ciência exata. Que futebol é jogado por 11 contra 11. E, nele, absolutamente nada é impossível! Principalmente quando em campo está uma camisa que pesa uma tonelada, como a do Botafogo!”, celebrou.
Botafogo encaminhou a classificação no Mundial de Clubes da Fifa
A vitória sobre o Paris Saint-Germain colocou o Botafogo na liderança do Grupo B da Copa do Mundo de Clubes da Fifa com seis pontos, contra três dos franceses e do Atlético de Madrid. Lanterna da chave, o Seattle Sounders perdeu seus dois primeiros jogos na competição.
Na última rodada, o Fogão irá enfrentar o Atlético de Madrid na próxima segunda-feira (23) às 16h (horário de Brasília), podendo perder por até dois gols de diferença para se classificar para as oitavas de final. Caso o time de General Severiano perca para os espanhois e o PSG derrote o Seattle Sounders no mesmo horário, as três equipes chegariam a seis pontos.
De acordo com o regulamento do Mundial de Clubes, o critério de desempate é o saldo de gols válido somente nos confrontos entre as equipes com a mesma soma de pontos. Ou seja, no cenário de uma derrota do Botafogo e uma vitória do PSG no começo da próxima semana, não seria incluído o saldo dos resultados dos três times diante do time norte-americano.

Cal Raleigh Ties, Breaks Bench’s Record For Catcher Homers Before All-Star Break
<!--> Mariners’ catcher Cal Raleigh is having a truly great season. The switch-hitting slugger went deep twice against the Cubs on Friday at Wrigley Field, for home runs 28 and 29 of the 2025 season, allowing him to tie and then pass Hall of Famer Johnny Bench’s record for homers by a catcher before the All-Star break. The first blast came in the top of the first inning, a solo shot with two outs to put the Mariners up 1-0. That tied Bench’s mark, set in 1970 in what would be the first of two MVP-winning seasons for the Reds’ star. It took Bench 87 games to go deep 28 times, but Raleigh managed the feat in his 73rd game of the season. And it took just a few innings more for Big Dumper to set a new benchmark with his 29th […]
