A Rua Bariri será hoje um dos quatro palcos que abrem a Série A2 do Campeonato Carioca. A partir das 15h, Olaria e Bangu se enfrentam na Zona Norte do Rio de Janeiro, em confronto suburbano de dois dos três times da capital fluminense – o America é o outro. Ambos já se encontraram em situação melhor, mas a missão agora é vencer a corrida por uma vaga na elite do Estadual. O America é o outro, e hoje recebe a Cabofriense em Edson Passos, para um encontro entre os presidentes Romário e André Felipe.

Em um torneio no qual sobram boas histórias em 2025, os 12 participantes se enfrentarão em 11 rodadas de um turno único. Os quatro primeiros colocados avançarão à semifinal, e somente o campeão sobe.

Esta é a expectativa principal para o Bangu, rebaixado neste ano pela primeira vez desde 2004. Aquele período de quatro anos na segunda divisão só acabou quando o alvirrubro venceu o título em 2008. Pelo atual formato do Carioca, é possível subir no mesmo ano da queda, o que é a grande expectativa para o bicampeão estadual (1933 e 1966), treinado pelo conhecido Alfredo Sampaio.

Longe da elite desde 2013, o Olaria bateu na trave com os vices da A2 em 2022, 2023 e 2024. O Azulão chega animado após campanha surpreendente na Copa do Brasil, quando derrubou o ABC na primeira fase. A queda para o Brusque não desanima por completo um clube cada vez mais candidato a dar a volta por cima.

Chefes boleiros

Heptacampeão do Rio, o America tenta voltar à primeira divisão desde o rebaixamento de 2016 – participou da extinta seletiva em 2021. Trazia grandes expectativas no ano passado, quando Romário assumiu a presidência e até se inscreveu como jogador para tentar ajudar, mas a campanha não foi longe.

Uma de suas contratações foi o atacante André Felipe, autor de cinco gols na última A2 e dono de rápida mudança na carreira. Após defender a Cabofriense, time da sua cidade natal (Cabo Frio), aposentou-se e surpreendeu ao virar presidente. Fora da elite desde 2020, o clube da Região dos Lagos visita hoje o time do ex-chefe e amigo.

Equipes jovens e uma estreante

Americano, Duque de Caxias, Resende e Audax são outros dos times mais conhecidos envolvidos na disputa da Segundona. O clube de Campos dos Goytacazes, que está sumida da primeira divisão desde 2019, chegou a ser treinado por Marcelinho Paraíba neste ano. Porém, o ex-jogador só atuou durante a pré-temporada do elenco.

Acontece que a Série A2 tem sido cada vez mais um palco para equipes novas, mas com projetos bem estruturados e forte investimento, brilharem. Isso aconteceu nas últimas duas temporadas,com os títulos de Sampaio Corrêa e Maricá, hoje firmes na primeira divisão. É nisso que apostam Araruama, fundado em 2016, e Petrópolis, nascido em 2013 e hoje mais bem posicionado que o tradicional Serrano.

Campeão da B1 (terceira divisão) em 2024, o São Gonçalo tem a meta de permanência e subiu junto do vice Pérolas Negras. O clube de Porto Real, no Sul Fluminense, surgido em 2009 após a Missão de Paz do Brasil no Haiti, é o estreante da edição.

1ª rodada da Série A2 do Carioca 2025:

  • Olaria x Bangu – sábado (17) – 15h – Rua Bariri
  • America x Cabofriense – sábado (17) – 15h – Giulite Coutinho (Edson Passos)
  • Duque de Caxias x Petrópolis – sábado (17) – 15h – Marrentão
  • São Gonçalo x Americano – sábado (17) – 15h – Los Larios (Xerém)
  • Araruama x Pérolas Negras – sábado (17) – 19h – Lourivaldão (Saquarema)
  • Audax x Resende – domingo (18) – 15h – Los Larios (Xerém)

Qual é o regulamento da Série A2 do Carioca 2025?

Assim como em 2024, os 12 times participantes se enfrentam em turno único. Após 11 rodadas, o primeiro colocado será o campeão da Taça Santos Dumont. Os quatro melhores desta fase avançam às semifinais da Série A2 em partidas de ida e volta (1º x 4º e 2º x 3º), com os vencedores decidindo o título da competição também em duas partidas. O campeão da Série A2 garante vaga na elite do futebol do Rio de Janeiro em 2026. Os dois últimos da Taça Santos Dumont serão rebaixados à Série B1 do Campeonato Estadual.

How the atmosphere at Chelsea has been transformed in the space of 12 months

What a difference a year makes.Chelsea’s win over Manchester United on Friday night may have moved them just three points clear (66) of the total achieved by former head coach Mauricio Pochettino last season (63) with one game remaining, but the mood within the club and around current head coach Enzo Maresca’s position is a complete contrast.AdvertisementTo emphasise why, let’s first go back 12 months to when Pochettino took charge of Chelsea’s last fixture of the campaign at Stamford Bridge (which was also their final match of 2023-24).
