Sunday of the biggest classic in English football, between Liverpool and Manchester United, and the best classic in Brazilian football, between Flamengo and Palmeiras.
In the packed sanctuary of Anfield, in the first minute, the visitors surprised the Reds and took the lead.
The Reds’ fight to reach a draw lasted until the 78th minute of the dramatic game.
The Dutchman Gakpo found himself against the goalposts twice, the Egyptian Salah missed a goal that should keep him awake for a week, until the same Gakpo equalized.
There was enough time for the turnaround and that was all that was expected from Liverpool, given the pressure they exerted and the need for a result to avoid a fourth defeat in a row, something absolutely out of character for the current English champion.
Then, at 84, captain Maguire went to the third floor and headed for United’s unlikely triumph, because in football tradition plays a role and the derby, played for the 217th time since 1894, ended with United’s 84th victory, 12 more victories over their rival.
It had been nine years since United had won at their rival’s home.
A better appetizer impossible for the 133rd Flamengo and Palmeiras, Maracanã equally packed, the red and black team looking for their 46th victory, the black and white team behind their 50th.
It’s a shame that it started with Jorginho’s penalty on Gustavo Gómez, just after 3 minutes, not signaled by the pusillanimous arbitration associated between the whistle blower and the VAR.
Then, no less than five goals, in an important 3-2 red-black victory, on a Pedro afternoon, a goal, a pass for a goal and a penalty conceded, in a tense game, played in the rain, with new refereeing criteria: pushes count, whether the players are at fault or not.
The Brazilian Championship remains open, with Palmeiras and Flamengo in command, the Alviverdes ahead because they have one more victory.
Balls out
In the away ball championship it is also difficult to know who will be the champion.
Whether the far-right duo Eduardo Bolsonaro$Paulo Figueiredo or the Zionist Conib (Israeli Confederation of Brazil).
The two fugitives only made Lula’s ball worse, who treats the 03 as his number 10 when thanking the traitor of the country for his recovery in the polls.
The regrettable entity managed to generate more than 21 thousand signatures in solidarity with journalist Breno Altman, including Celso Amorim, Chico Buarque de Hollanda, Lilia Schwarcz and Paulo Sérgio Pinheiro, to name just four personalities above any suspicion of anti-Semitism, the cowardly and false argument of those who support the Holocaust imposed on the Palestinian people.
By the way, the Norwegian Football Federation donated to the victims of Gaza the income provided by 27 thousand fans in Norway’s 5-0 rout of Israel, in Oslo, in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, on October 11th.
In Oslo, remember, 32 years ago, a peace agreement was signed between Israel and the Palestinians, which was never followed, also because Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin was assassinated by the Jewish terrorist Yigal Amir.
Today, the person who is already disobeying the very recent agreement is another terrorist, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu.
