The idol of Flamengo, former player and former coach, Evaristo de Macedo, was honored this Wednesday (3) for his services to football in Rio of January. Currently 90 years old, the red-black and Brazilian football legend thanked the gesture offered by the Superintendency of Sports of the State of Rio de Janeiro (SUDERJ) on social media.


“Age asked that it be in home and with simplicity. Moved, I thank the Governor of Rio de Janeiro, the Secretaries of the Civil House and Sports and Leisure and SUDERJ, in the person of its president Renato de Paula, for the tribute. I don't know if I did much, but I know I did my best for football”, said Evaristo de Macedo on X, formerly Twitter, this Wednesday (03).


“Today was the day to celebrate the greatness of Evaristo de Macedo, an immortal legend of Rio football who transcended borders and marked an era! His legendary journey began on the pitch of Flamengo, where he shone brightly and wrote his name in the history of national sport”, said part of SUDERJ's tribute on Instagram.


TRIBUTE FOR THE SERVICES PROVIDED


Evaristo de Macedo emerged at Madureira in 1950. Soon afterwards, he was traded to Mais Querido where he stayed between 1953 and 1957. This is because, at the time, the former player was bought by Barcelona (ESP). In Spain, there were 105 goals with the Catalan team's shirt. Before returning to Flamengo in 1965, Evaristo also played for Real Madrid.

Also highlighting that Evaristo had an important spell with the Brazilian team, mainly in 1957. The former striker won the Copa Roca and Atlantic Cup with Brazil.

AND FLAMENGO?

With Flamengo, Evaristo won five titles, including: four Brazilian Championships and one Cup of State Champions. Therefore, the football legend deserves to receive all the honors possible while he can.

Flamengo confirmed its prominent position in Brazilian swimming by leading the number of athletes called up to represent the country in the five main international competitions of the 2025 season. In total, 18 swimmers from the club were called up to join different national teams, more than any other club in the country.


MAIN TOURNAMENTS


The calls cover five tournaments : the World Aquatics Championships in Singapore; the Junior World Championships in Otopeni (Romania); the Universiades in Berlin (Germany); the South American Youth Championships in Rio de Janeiro; and the U-15 Gymnasiades in Serbia.


Among Brazilian clubs, only Flamengo and Pinheiros have managed to field athletes in all five national teams . Flamengo leads the overall rankings with 18 players, followed by Pinheiros and Minas Tênis Clube, both with 14.

FEATURED IN THE BASE CATEGORIES


Although other institutions dominated selections in specific categories—such as Unisanta, the base team for the Singapore World Cup, with five players, and Minas Gerais, a strong performer at the Universiade and Junior World Championships— Flamengo was the standout in the youth categories . The Rio de Janeiro club had the most representatives in both the South American Youth Championship, with nine athletes, and the U-15 Gymnasiade, with five.

The survey, conducted by the Best Swimming website, analyzed a total of 23 clubs that had swimmers selected. After Flamengo, Pinheiros, and Minas, SESI-SP (10 athletes) and Unisanta (8) were the most representative. The significant presence of Flamengo on the national teams, especially among the younger players, reinforces Flamengo's role as a key player in the renewal of national swimming and one of Brazil's main talent pools.
