Craque Neto, em discurso na Rádio Bandeirantes (Reprodução)
Craque Neto escalou a seleção brasileira ideal com diversos jogadores do futebol nacional. Ele indicou Hugo Souza, do Corinthians, como titular, além de quatro jogadores do Flamengo e Estêvão, do Palmeiras, no setor ofensivo.
Veja como ficou o time do apresentador: Hugo Souza; Wesley, Marquinhos, Léo Ortiz e Alex Sandro; Casemiro, Bruno Guimarães e Gerson; Estêvão, Vinícius Júnior e Richarlison.
Em crise e apenas na quarta posição das Eliminatórias para a Copa do Mundo, o Brasil entra em campo nesta quinta-feira (5), contra o Equador, fora de casa. O jogo marca a estreia de Carlo Ancelotti, que deixou o Real Madrid recentemente após anos de sucesso e títulos da Champions League.
Ancelotti pensa diferente de Craque Neto
O treinador italiano esboçou um time com mais “jogadores europeus”, especialmente no sistema defensivo. Apenas Alex Sandro e Gerson, ambos do Fla, e Estêvão, do Verdão, devem ser titulares entre os atletas que jogam no Brasil.
O meio-campo e o ataque é o mesmo sugerido por Craque Neto, mas a defesa está bem diferente; confira a provável escalação para a partida desta semana:
Alisson; Vanderson, Marquinhos, Alexsandro e Alex Sandro; Casemiro, Bruno Guimarães e Gerson; Estêvão, Vinícius Júnior e Richarlison.
Pressão por classificação
A seleção brasileira ainda não garantiu vaga para a Copa do Mundo de 2026. Fernando Diniz e Ramon Menezes treinaram a equipe de forma interina, enquanto Dorival Júnior passou um tempo no cargo como técnico efetivo. No entanto, nenhum deles teve sucesso.
Por conta das más atuações, o Brasil está com 21 pontos, na quarta posição. A liderança é da Argentina, que já tem 31 e é seguida por Equador (23) e Uruguai (21). Fora do G4 está o Paraguai (21) e Colômbia (20), todos esses em zona de classificação; a Venezuela tem 15 e preenche a vaga de repescagem.
Segundo Craque Neto, Ancelotti é a grande esperança da seleção pelo sonho do hexa na Copa do Mundo de 2026 na América do Norte (Estados Unidos, Canadá e México).

Torcedores do Flamengo reprovam investimento de quase R$ 100 milhões em Carrascal: “Mais um Alcaraz”

Braves blow six-run ninth-inning lead to Diamondbacks in brutal loss not seen since 2022
The Atlanta Braves this season have had some pretty lows lows, but what happened Thursday afternoon might well be rock bottom. At least, they have to hope so.The Braves had leads of 6-0 through three, 9-3 through six and 10-4 through eight and still lost to the Diamondbacks, 11-10 (box score). Credit, obviously, to the D-backs offense for never giving up and putting the hurt on the Braves' bullpen. This was the first time this season a team won the game when trailing by six or more runs entering the ninth inning. Teams were previously 0-159 in this scenario. In fact, looping back to the start of 2023, teams had been 0-1,078 in this situation. This was a special comeback. On the Braves' end, this was their largest blown lead since Sept. 5, 2018, when they had a 7-1 lead over the […]
How to watch Paraguay vs. Uruguay, Brazil, Argentina in World Cup qualifying: Live stream, start time
Getty Images Argentina may have already booked their place at the 2026 World Cup, but behind them, CONMEBOL World Cup qualifying has been quite a grind, with only three points separating second-placed Ecuador from sixth-placed Colombia. South American qualifying can always be a tense affair, but with Brazil and Uruguay struggling to establish themselves behind Argentina, things have been more open than in years past.Of course, with Carlo Ancelotti debuting as the new head coach of the Brazil national team, quite a lot could be on the verge of changing. He has plenty of work figuring out the balance of the squad, but just getting the best out of Raphinha and Vinicus Junor will go a long way to turning things around for Brazil. Venezuela also seeks their first World Cup appearance in history. Currently sitting seventh in the standings, they […]

Steelers’ Aaron Rodgers limbo ends before it could get truly white-knuckle
The start of free agency came and went. The draft. Now organized team activities. Surely, Aaron Rodgers can’t skip an entire offseason and just show up for Pittsburgh Steelers training camp.Right?Right?AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementWell, that's right. Rodgers will reportedly officially sign with the Steelers on Friday. If that sounds late, well, it could have been even later based on team messaging back in April, when just a few days before the start of the NFL Draft, both head coach Mike Tomlin and general manager Omar Khan suggested the quarterback room didn’t need to be complete until late July.“We go to camp with four quarterbacks,” Khan told reporters on April 23. “Right now we have two on the roster. All options are on the table in how we acquire those last two. I assure you we’ll have four when we get to [training camp […]
