After Fluminense’s 2-1 win over Bolívar in the Libertadores at the Maracanã, goalkeeper Fábio spoke about being left off the preliminary Brazil national team list for the 2026 World Cup and vented about the lack of opportunities throughout his career.“I don’t do my best for the CBF, no. I do my best for God and for the teams I’ve had the opportunity to play for. Here at Fluminense, at Cruzeiro. I always do my best for them and especially for God, who grants me health. My national team is doing my best every day, and my history speaks for itself. God vindicates me,” he said.The No. 1 also recalled that he has been dealing with this situation since his Cruzeiro days.“Before, about ten years ago, twelve years ago, they were already saying they didn’t take me because they wanted younger players. But I think whoever is there has their merits. Sometimes it’s not the person who is in the best form, but everyone has their merits and qualities. Unfortunately, football has these things. Better to stay quiet, right?” he added.
