Selton Mello – a renowned name in Brazilian cinema and television – echoed the outrage of São Paulo fans after the humiliating defeat to Fluminense at Maracanã. On social media, the star of “Ainda Estou Aqui” – winner of the 2025 Oscar for Best International Feature – expressed all his frustration with the 6-0 thrashing suffered by the São Paulo team in the 2025 Brasileirão match.

“I saw this team be giants, I also saw the decline. Complete and immediate change,” wrote the São Paulo fan, in response to the club’s post showing the score from the match in Rio de Janeiro.
In Selton Mello’s view, São Paulo needs to undergo a deep overhaul to return to its glory days. “(Change) in management, in directors, in mentality, in planning, in those who don’t respect the shirt,” the actor added.
In 2025, São Paulo has accumulated disappointments. With no titles this season, the team still holds a remote hope for a Libertadores spot: it needs to finish the Brasileirão in eighth place and root for either Fluminense or Cruzeiro to win the Copa do Brasil.
