Today’s game against Romania marks Ronaldo Lima‘s final departure from the seleção brasileira. He’ll still be with Corinthians for the next few months and has promised fans of the Timão that he won’t be leaving till the end of the year. Before he left, he gave a really nice press conference where he lauded Neymar and said he was confident of the youngster’s future. Of course, the zany TV show CQC was there to have some fun (watch video below!)
“Certainly, I will pass Neymar my crown. He’s a player with immense talent and has much room for improvement. In many senses, technically and physically. But Neymar for me is the best bet for the future.” – Ronaldo
Also, Menezes will announce the 22-man Copa America squad shortly after the Romania friendly later. He said : “We will take into consideration everything that is experienced at this time. We will review the athlete’s time, priorities and needs”.
Aaaaand you’re looking at the Panini sticker book featuring the German national team, specially put together for the upcoming Women’s World Cup in Germany! The tournament kicks off on July 26th, and the big names like Brazil, USA and Sweden will be there. Unfortunately, Spain did not qualify to play in this one – but that doesn’t mean they don’t have the referees for it!
