Updates from 3pm (8pm BST) game in CharlotteEmail Scott with your thoughts7 min: Darmian comes through the back of Cano, and is fortunate not to go into the book. Inter have already committed a couple of fouls, so their next miscreant might not be so fortunate.5 min: Inter try to reply immediately, Darmian making good down the right. But his cross is no use. What a start by Flu, though; the Brazilians, well, flew out of the traps and got right up in Inter’s collective grille. They got their reward. Continue reading...

3 d. ago Brazilian teams have excelled at the Club World Cup. How far can they go?

Brazil’s four teams – Flamengo, Botafogo, Palmeiras and Fluminense – breezed through the group stage “Many people didn’t believe this would happen. It is happening,” said Fluminense manager Renato Gaúcho as he reflected on the performances of the Brazilian teams at the Club World Cup . With Fluminense , Palmeiras, Botafogo and Flamengo all on their way to the last 16, Renato said that Brazilian football and people should be “very proud” of what their clubs have done in the US.The results in the group stage were impressive. Botafogo beat European champions Paris Saint-Germain; Flamengo won convincingly against Chelsea; and the only defeat for a Brazilian team – when Botafogo lost to Atlético Madrid – came when they had an eye on the knockout stage. In all, they played 12 games, lost one and only conceded nine goals. Continue reading...

7 d. ago Brazilian clubs are upending the global order at the Club World Cup

Flamengo, Botafogo, Palmeiras and Fluminense are not as rich as European clubs but they have heart and heritage“The graveyard of football is full of ‘favourites’,” warned Botafogo manager Renato Paiva in what has proven to be this summer’s coldest line in sweltering United States heat. Gritty draws achieved by Palmeiras against Porto and Fluminense against Borussia Dortmund at the Club World Cup were enough to start a conversation. But the underdog heroics of Brazil’s other two clubs have shaken up how we see club football across the world.For the first time since Corinthians shocked Chelsea in Yokohama in 2012, when some Brazilian fans sold their homes and vehicles to make the trip, the reigning Copa Libertadores champions have beaten the Champions League winners. Igor Jesus, who has been strongly linked to Nottingham Forest, scored the only goal of the game as Botafogo beat Paris Saint-Germain 1-0 at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, a special setting for Brazilians given it is where the...
