Jogadores do Flamengo reunidos antes de jogo no Mundial (Gilvan de Souza/CRF)
Jornalista também mostrou otimismo ao projetar os resultados de Palmeiras, Fluminense na segunda rodada do torneio
Fábio Sormani vê potencial do Flamengo surpreender o Chelsea no Mundial. Convicto de que o clube londrino não possui o status de “bicho-papão”, o comunicador foi ousado ao projetar uma vitória por 2 a 0 nesta sexta-feira (20). Mesmo triunfando contra o Los Angeles FC, na primeira rodada, os Blues não empolgaram em campo, algo que, caso seja repetido, pode garantir mais três pontos para o Rubro-Negro.
Batendo de frente com o Borussia Dortmund, o Fluminense chega embalado para encarar o Ulsan, da Coreia. Sem colocar o Tricolor das Laranjeiras no patamar do Flamengo, Sormani acredita que o time de Renato Gaúcho deve vencer o próximo adversário de forma tranquila e encaminhar a vaga no mata-mata.
“Eu sou Flamengo! ‘Ah, o Chelsea…’. O que é isso? O Chelsea não é essas coisas. Não é nada de outro mundo. Acho que o Flamengo tem condições de ganhar do Chelsea. Acho que dá para fazer uns 2 a 0. Tranquilo.”, iniciou Sormani, em vídeo da Placar TV. “O Fluminense não pode perder. Tem que ganhar. Embora eu não veja no Fluminense um time tão forte a ponto de ir adiante na competição, eu acredito mais no Palmeiras e Flamengo, mas acho que esse jogo é bem acessível. Deve vencer por 2 a 0.”, acrescentou.
Alerta para o Botafogo e projeção de vitória do Palmeiras
Mantendo o otimismo com o Palmeiras, Sormani confia que o clube alviverde vai desbancar o Al-Ahly e atingir quatro pontos. Enquanto isso, no caso do Botafogo, o jornalista enxerga um risco do PSG aplicar outra goleada no Mundial após atropelar o Atlético de Madrid. Neste cenário, uma aposta positiva ligada ao clube alvinegro não foi veiculada.
“Palmeiras (vence), pelo amor de Deus! O jogo que o Palmeiras fez na estreia do Mundial com o Porto mostra que o time está credenciado a ir longe nessa competição.”, destacou. “Eu queria muito que o Botafogo ganhasse, mas eu acho muito difícil. O Botafogo vai ter que tomar cuidado para não levar um sacode como o Atlético de Madrid levou.”, concluiu.
Torcida de Sormani no Mundial
Fanático pelo Santos, Sormani espera que os representantes do futebol brasileiro sigam acumulando bons resultados ao longo do Mundial. Insatisfeito com a cultura de superioridade dos europeus, o profissional também decidiu apoiar Boca Juniors e River Plate nos próximos embates diante das equipes do Velho Continente.
“A diferença não é tão grande assim. Eu estou torcendo para todos os brasileiros, e estou torcendo para todos os sul-americanos. Torci para o Boca contra o Benfica, nunca pensei que fosse fazer isso. Vou torcer para o River Plate contra qualquer time europeu. Minha torcida nesse Mundial é contra todos os times europeus. Eu não aguento a empáfia deles com esse eurocentrismo.”, externou Sormani, no Opinião Placar.

On a recent episode of Fantasy Football Today, that's exactly what Adam Aizer, Dave Richard, and Jamey Eisenberg did. They've got some fun ones up for debate on players who will outperform or underperform their current ADP (average draft position).Let's dive right into it with a second-year quarterback who is projected to take over as the starting quarterback in a passing game that just revived the career of a former first-round bust. There might not be supporting cast and coaching combination better positioned to produce a Fantasy […]
Mbappé skončil v nemocnici. Pravděpodobně přijde o skupinovou fázi MS klubů
Nový trenér madridského týmu Xabi Alonso po zápase v Miami doufal, že bude mít Mbappého k dispozici v neděli v příštím utkání proti Pachuce, aktuální hospitalizace nicméně přinesla pochyby, zda útočník do turnaje vůbec nastoupí.

Where RBs land in Prisco’s Top 100: Saquon Barkley stands atop group; star AFC back among notable snubs
It's that time of the year again when our guy Pete Prisco combs through the entire NFL and stacks up who he believes are the top 100 players heading into the upcoming season. One of the more notable takeaways from Prisco's 2025 player ranking is his newfound (rekindled?) love for the running back position. Last year, Prisco listed only two backs inside his top 100 list. Fast forward to the 2025 edition, and a total of eight running backs sit inside Prisco's Top 100. That includes Saquon Barkley falling inside the top five as the No. 3-ranked player overall, and he headlines a group of six running backs who are in the top 50. While we can make a friendly jab at our buddy Prisco and say he's getting soft nowadays, placing this many backs inside of his top 100 does reflect what […]

Ao mesmo tempo que tem uma enorme necessidade de vender atletas, a diretoria corintiana sabe que a ausência do camisa 8 afetaria e muito o rendimento técnico do time. Insatisfeito com problemas políticos do clube, o meia gostaria de deixar o clube brasileiro.
