Jorginho reveals the secret behind Flamengo’s success in 2025 | OneFootball

Jorginho won his first Brasileirão title of his career

Having spent his entire career in Europe, Jorginho returned to Brazil to find happiness and stack up trophies. To achieve this, of course, the midfielder chose Flamengo. This Wednesday (03), the Italo-Brazilian lifted the Brasileirão, four days after kissing the Copa Libertadores. What's the secret to success? The number 21 revealed.

— The group is sensational. It's the result of a lot of hard work, dedication, and seriousness. It's certainly a credit to everyone involved. Everyone behind the scenes, at the training center, the involvement of the fans, the project, the work behind the scenes… The result on the field is the fruit of all this — said Jorginho.

— The energy is sensational, the connection of the group. The group is very good, each one for the other. We want the best for Flamengo, for the teammate to grow and help each other. This connection, for sure, makes all the difference — added the midfielder.

AND THE BRASILEIRÃO TITLE?

With a 1-0 victory over Ceará, Flamengo secured their ninth Brasileirão title. This is because the Most Beloved jumped to 78 points and can no longer be caught by Palmeiras, who now have 73 after their victory over Atlético-MG.

Therefore, Flamengo will just fulfill the schedule in the last round of the Brasileirão. An important rest, after all, Filipe Luís will be able to rest the starters against Mirassol, at the weekend, at Estádio Maião. Initially scheduled for Sunday (07), the match is expected to be moved up to Saturday (06).

This is because, on Wednesday (10), Flamengo will face Cruz Azul in the quarter-finals of the Intercontinental Cup, the Club World Cup. Thus, the match will kick off at 2 PM (Brasília time), in Qatar. The red-black delegation is expected to travel to the country later this week.
