At just 18 years old, Léo Nannetti took center stage in the U-20 World Cup final at the Maracanã Stadium. The Flamengo goalkeeper was instrumental in the 2-2 draw in regulation time and shone in the penalty shootout , saving two shots in the 6-5 victory over Barcelona. The goalkeeper's impeccable performance cemented Mengão's title, securing their second title in the intercontinental youth competition.


Before the ball rolled, Léo Nannetti said he received a special message from Agustín Rossi, the starting goalkeeper for the professional squad. The encouragement served as fuel for a great performance: " Rossi sent me a message before the game to reassure me. I was able to put into practice what he and the goalkeeping coach, André, had said. We did a very detailed study and, thank God, I was able to be decisive," he said.


YOUNG DEFENDER CELEBRATES ACHIEVEMENT


Emotional after the match, Nannetti highlighted the importance of the moment he experienced and the trajectory he built at the club: "It's wonderful to win this title so young alongside my brothers. I've been at Flamengo since 2016. Winning a World Cup with them is unforgettable," he declared.

With solid performances, the goalkeeper confirms his status as a promising young player. He has made 17 official appearances in 2025 and has established himself as one of the most promising players of the 2007 generation.


NEXT CHALLENGE FOR THE MAIN CAST

While the young goalkeeper celebrates, the professional team prepares to face Vitória this Monday (25), at 9 pm (Brasília time) , at Maracanã. More than 35 thousand tickets have already been sold, and the expectation is that the audience will exceed 50 thousand fans.

In a packed Maracanã, Flamengo beat Barcelona on penalties 6-5 , after a thrilling draw in normal time, and secured their second U-20 World Cup title this Saturday (23). The victory consolidated the good moment of the red-black youth team, which once again overcame one of the main clubs in Europe .


Among the protagonists was Matheus Gonçalves , who had a special afternoon. The striker, about to say goodbye to the category, celebrated the achievement with emotion: "It was special. We were raised together since we were little, it has a special taste. My last title with the under-20. I have to congratulate Léo (Nannetti, goalkeeper) and Bruno (Pivetti, coach). It's the second Intercontinental and we are two-time champions. Very happy for everything", he declared.


MATHEUS GONÇALVES HAS COMPETITION


At 20 years old, having turned 20 on August 18th, the attacking midfielder will dedicate himself exclusively to the first team under Filipe Luís . In 2025, he made 15 professional appearances , including three goals in the Campeonato Carioca.

Despite the confidence of the coaching staff, Gonçalves has only played 313 minutes on the field this season , making his streak difficult due to the strong competition for position with Luiz Araújo, Samuel Lino and Gonzalo Plata.


EUROPEAN TEAMS MONITOR THE PLAYER

Interest in Matheus Gonçalves isn't new. The player was nearly traded to Cruzeiro for €3.5 million, but the deal fell through . However, foreign clubs remain vigilant: CSKA Moscow (Russia) and Olympiacos (Greece) are evaluating the possibility of formalizing offers before the international window closes in September.
