During coverage of the classic match between Vasco and Flamengo for the Brazilian Championship, broadcast by Prime Video, former player Romário did not spare praise for Gerson, the club's defensive midfielder. An idol of national football and world champion in 1994, Baixinho was direct in stating that the Mengão's number 8 should be an absolute starter for the Brazilian team in the next world cycle.
Let him know that he is the absolute starter of my team" - said Romário
As he was leaving the field, Gerson was talking to the reporting team when he was surprised by a message sent live by Romário: “Let him know that he is the absolute starter for my national team”. The athlete's reaction was one of immediate gratitude, praising the former striker and highlighting the importance of his words. Still emotional about the comment, the midfielder reciprocated the affection : “With this guy there is no comparison, there is no way. I thank him. I saw the end of his career, it was already sinister. With him there is no way”. The statement reinforces the mutual admiration between players of different generations and highlights the good moment that Gerson is experiencing on and off the field.
During Dorival Júnior's time in charge of the Brazilian national team, Gerson had a place in the group. The midfielder of Mais Querido alternated between starting and being on the bench, but he was always guaranteed a presence in the call-ups and managed to get relevant minutes throughout the year in which the coach led the team.
The Joker's last performance with the national team's jersey took place on March 21 , against Colombia. He played for only 28 minutes before suffering an injury that ruled him out of the next match, against Argentina, in Buenos Aires. The defeat to the Argentines, in fact, culminated in Dorival's departure from the coaching command.
In addition to talking about Gerson, Romário took the opportunity to comment on Vasco's performance in the derby. According to the former player, the team led by Fábio Carille has been showing progress, especially in direct clashes against Mengão. For him, there are clear signs of reconstruction in the Cruzmaltino team.

Flamengo continues its preparations to face Juventude this Sunday (14), in the 23rd round of the Brazilian Championship. The team's second-highest scorer this season, Pedro is expecting to start as a starter and could be one of the main weapons of Filipe Luís' team.
The number 9's record against the opponent excites the fans: in five matches against Juventude, Pedro has already scored six goals and provided one assist . In retrospect, the center forward also has the advantage, with three wins against the Gauchos and only two losses.
The season has been full of ups and downs for Pedro. After recovering from a serious knee injury in April, the striker faced criticism for his performance in training and even became embroiled in controversy off the field . However, he managed to turn things around and is now Flamengo 's second-highest scorer this year, with 12 goals and five assists.
Flamengo leads the Brazilian Championship with 47 points (14 wins, five draws, and just two losses) . Just behind them are Cruzeiro with 44 points and Palmeiras with 43. Juventude, their next opponent, is in a difficult situation: they are in 18th place with just 21 points.
With Pedro available, Flamengo returns to the field on Sunday (14), at 4 pm (Brasília time), to face Juventude, at Alfredo Jaconi Stadium, in Caxias do Sul, for the 23rd round of the Brasileirão. The Mais Querido seeks the first victory against Jaconero away from home since 1997 , when with an own goal from Rodrigo Silva, managed to come out victorious.
Unlike other opportunities, Mengão players were not used to their full potential and should be available against Juventude.
