Abel Ferreira calls for media unity to take on Flamengo | OneFootball

What was Abel Ferreira’s statement about Flamengo?

Abel Ferreira keeps crying in press conferences after losing the Libertadores final to Flamengo in 2025. This Thursday (23), the coach called for unity from the Palmeiras press to ‘put an end to’ the Most Beloved.

— I ask for unity from the fans and the Palmeiras media. We all have to stay united against everything and everyone. What we see from the other side needs to be said — he said in a press conference after Palmeiras’ win over Jacuipense.

Is this the first time Abel Ferreira has ‘cried’ because of Flamengo?

No! After losing the Libertadores final to Flamengo, Abel Ferreira has already gotten tired of ‘crying’ in press conferences. Recently, in fact, the coach once again complained about Conmebol’s VAR after a Libertadores match.

Conmebol even opened disciplinary proceedings against Abel Ferreira after the statements. In other words, the coach could be suspended if he is punished by South America’s top governing body.

And Flamengo?

Flamengo, on the other hand, pretends Abel Ferreira does not exist and is focusing on the clash with Atlético-MG. The match, therefore, will take place this Sunday (26), at Arena MRV, in the 13th round of the Brazilian Championship.
