Flamengo and Botafogo face each other on Sunday, in the middle of Maracanã, at 11 am, for the Brazilian Championship, in a duel that has seen the rivalry grow even more in recent years, but, off the field, is marked by cordiality. From the meeting in Orlando, United States, to the under-20 classic in Gávea, Rodolfo Landim and John Textor maintain a friendship, which has even caused discomfort.

Landim and Textor's relationship

The president of Flamengo and the owner of SAF do Alvinegro talk constantly and don't waste opportunities for a chat personally. A new meeting, however, will not happen today. Textor was punished by the Plenary of the STJD and cannot attend Glorioso games as home team or visitor.

At the beginning of the year, Textor visited Landim in the USA and watched a Flamengo game against Orlando City. At the time, the black and white leader posted that he "supported Brazil" and angered Glorioso fans. Last year, the red-black president received the businessman in Gávea. Textor went to his rival's headquarters to watch the Brazilian under-20 classic.


People close to him say they have similar ideas. The conversation generally revolves around measures that can be taken to modernize and improve the quality of Brazilian football as a product. Landim and Textor have mutual respect. The way they see football and the leadership they exercise means they have a closer relationship.

In addition to conversations about the market and football, there have already been conversations about Nilton Santos. At the beginning of last year, Landim's idea was for Rio's stadiums to serve everyone to relieve Maracanã. Therefore, the stadium was also a character in this relationship. Vasco invited Botafogo to be an ally in the management of the stadium, but Textor preferred to refuse the proposal because he understood that Nilton Santos already met his demand and so as not to upset Landim, who is going through a legal battle with Cruz-Maltino in the bidding.

Landim and Textor were initial allies in Libra. The two came to walk side by side in the discussion, but, later, the businessman broke with the group and formed a parallel group with Coritiba, Cruzeiro and Vasco.

DID YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS, FLAMENGO? TITE AND FELIPÃO HAVE NOT SPOKEN FOR OVER 13 YEARS! FIND OUT THE REASON

Tite and Felipão were once close, but they broke off relations and haven't spoken to each other for 13 years. Tomorrow (29), the duel between Flamengo and Atlético-MG pits coaches whose stories, between slaps and kisses, have been linked for decades. ite and Felipão were close for a long time. Miro Bachi, Tite's brother, told UOL that Scolari was even at a birthday party for Matheus, son of Flamengo's coach and assistant.

Everything changed in 2010, when they broke off their friendship and never got back together. In the penultimate round of the 2010 Brasileirão, Tite's Corinthians depended on Felipão's Palmeiras in the fight for the title. If Verdão stopped Fluminense, Timão, winning their game against Vasco, would take the lead. But it didn't happen, and Flu ended up champion. For Tite, the commitment of his former friend was lacking.

In 2011, after losing to Tolima-COL and being eliminated from the Libertadores, a statement by Felipão about Tite did not go down well. Scolari said that if his then friend's position depended on a victory he would "like to lose the game". What ended up happening.

In the following meeting there was a new controversy, when Tite starred in the scene that was marked by "talking a lot" on the edge of the field. Not even a hug exchanged in 2012 changed the tone of the relationship. It became strictly professional.


"In the heat of the game, a lot of things end up being misinterpreted. Those episodes broke the relationship. They both win at football, they are winning coaches, they are both good people, family people, that's it. we recognize it. But everyone wants to win in their own way. My brother doesn't want to use trickery, he wants to win by being the best. Felipão is a fox, it's the trickery of football", said Miro Bachi, Tite's brother.

Since then...

There have been a few unanswered attempts to contact us. Felipão argues that he sought out Tite and was not answered, Tite reports that, when he took over the selection, he sought contact with Scolari and there was no response either.


Tite's brother revealed that they were both at events at the same time and they tried not to meet. “It went each way,” he said. Once, Tite and Felipão were on the same flight, in nearby seats. There was an attempt to greet Tite, without any friendly response from Luiz Felipe. And nothing more.
