Arsenal (ENG) are one of the teams that secured a place in the Champions League semifinal this Wednesday (15). In London, the home side sealed qualification after a goalless draw with Sporting (POR). While the ball was rolling, Jorginho, a midfielder for Flamengo, sent a message to the English club.
“Come on, Arsenal”, said Jorginho in a post on ‘X,’ formerly Twitter. Besides the text, the Italian-Brazilian also left a heart emoji on the post. After that, fans of the English team and even Flamengo supporters flooded the midfielder with messages.

It is important to point out that before moving to Flamengo, Jorginho had been playing for Arsenal since 2023. Because of that, the Italian-Brazilian showed his support for the London club this Wednesday.
In the clash with Sporting, Arsenal won the first leg 1-0 away from home. In the return leg, the English side stuck firmly to the script and, without conceding, are through to the semifinal. In the next round, the English team will face Atlético de Madrid (ESP).
While the Champions League matches are taking place, Flamengo, with Jorginho, are preparing to face Independiente Medellín (COL) in the second round of the Libertadores. It is worth noting, however, that the Italian-Brazilian will be unavailable due to a left calf injury.
In short, the ball starts rolling for Flamengo and Independiente Medellín at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time) this Thursday (16), at the Maracanã. Therefore, as usual, Coluna do Fla TV will cover the details of the match on YouTube, as well as on its website and social media. Finally, ESPN (pay TV) and Disney+ (streaming) will broadcast the match.
