With the medals won at the Paris Olympics, the Brazilian team athletes were honored this Monday (12 ) at the CBF headquarters, in Rio, by president Ednaldo Rodrigues, directors and employees of the entity. Applauded standing up in the CBF auditorium, they took to the stage, wearing the team's uniform, for a symbolic celebration.
Called one by one by the Competitions manager, Aline Pellegrino, who was part of the winning generation of the beginning of the 2000s, the medalists heard from President Ednaldo Rodrigues thanks for reaching an Olympic final after 16 years.
“This is a tribute from Brazilian football to these warriors who fought so hard for the medal and have moved us in the last few days on this Olympic journey in France. This was a golden job. It was a very difficult trajectory, which had great harmony and rapport in each of the girls and the coaching staff, which built this path to the podium”, said Ednaldo Rodrigues.
“We are extending our Thanks also to all the directors of CBF, to the members of the arbitration committee, to the collaborators, to all those who make Brazilian football happen. I also want to congratulate the pioneers of all this, the trailblazers, represented here by several of them. They paved the way for us to have a consistent national team today, which always seeks results and does not allow itself to be overwhelmed by diversity”, continued the CBF president, referring to the former national team players invited to attend the event.
In his speech, Ednaldo Rodrigues also made a point of mentioning Antonia by name, one of the symbols of achievement at the Paris Olympics. The player played for several minutes against Spain in the first phase with a broken leg, which she would only find out about the following day.
When she played in sacrifice, standing in the middle of the field in the match played in Bordeaux, she prevented an opposing defender from advancing to try for more goals – Brazil, who played with one less in that match, due to Marta's expulsion in the first half, were outclassed on the scoreboard and could not concede another goal, otherwise, would be eliminated.
“There were many difficulties, game after game, a lot of traveling, the limited number of athletes that could be listed, the casualties without being able to make replacements, and you gave everything for this historic moment. They looked up to Antonia in that game. She was very important there, with her presence, a relevant fact for the classification, as we could not concede goals for the classification. Know that for everything you did, you will always be in the hearts of Brazilian fans”, said Ednaldo Rodrigues.

Botafogo-PB has begun restructuring its squad with an eye on the 2026 season. Out of the final phase of this year's Série C, the club announced a list of departures, and among the names is striker Henrique Dourado , formerly of Flamengo.
In an official statement last Monday (08), the club confirmed the departure of 13 players . In addition, it reported that midfielders Igor Maduro and Thallyson were loaned to Volta Redonda until the end of this season.
The striker played in two matches against Flamengo in the Copa do Brasil, in the third stage of the competition. The Rubro-Negro won both duels: 1-0 in the first leg and 4-2 in the return, scoring Belo's second goal , securing a spot in the quarterfinals.
Henrique Dourado arrived at Flamengo in 2018, after being the top scorer in the 2017 Brasileirão with Fluminense . His initial contract ran until 2021, but in 2019 he was sold to Henan Jianye, from China, in a deal worth approximately R$22 million.
While Dourado is free on the market, Flamengo remains firm in the season. The next commitment will be on Sunday (14), against Juventude, for the 23rd round of the Brasileirão . The match will be at Alfredo Jaconi, in Caxias do Sul, at 4 pm (Brasília time) and will be broadcast on Amazon Prime.
The athlete has not been used much by coach Filipe Luís, but he still has the coach's trust and will be used this Tuesday (10)
