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.

Chelsea win Conference League with comeback win over Betis, become first club to win all three European cups
Getty Images Chelsea have become the first men's team to win all three major European competitions after defeating Real Betis 4-1 to win the UEFA Conference League on Tuesday in Poland. Betis went ahead only nine minutes into the match via winger Abdessamad Ezalzouli, but in the second half of play, Chelsea were able to hit back as Cole Palmer orchestrated two great goals, assisting Enzo Fernandez and Nicolas Jackson before the Blues scored twice more via Jadon Sancho and Moises Caicedo. Manager Enzo Maresca called out Jackson for needing to make up for being suspended for the end of the Premier League season, and the Senegalese striker delivered with a goal in a big moment. After Sancho's insurance goal, it was party time for a season that has seen Chelsea secure a return to Champions League soccer by finishing in […]

Karl-Anthony Towns injury: Knicks star questionable for Game 5 vs. Pacers after hurting knee in Game 4 loss
Getty Images New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns is listed as questionable for Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals against the Indiana Pacers due to a left knee contusion.Towns appeared to injure the knee after colliding with Indiana's Aaron Nesmith with 2:11 remaining in Game 4 on Tuesday night. The Knicks lost that game 130-121 to fall behind 3-1 in the series and now face elimination at home on Thursday. After the collision with Nesmith, Towns returned for the final two minutes of regulation but looked visibly hobbled. After the game, Towns deflected questions about his status and directed his focus to the result. "I'm only thinking about the loss, I'm not thinking about that right now," Towns said.

Justiça mantém liminar que dá controle da SAF do Vasco ao clube associativo
