Flamengo idol moved to tears after Club World Cup speech, sends message | OneFootball

Flamengo ended the year 2025 with six trophies despite not winning the Club World Cup

The world championship title for Flamengo slipped away on Wednesday (17), but there is no reason for fans to feel ashamed, according to idol Julio Cesar. For the former goalkeeper, the dominant phase of the beloved team will be long-lasting.

— It's incredible to see Flamengo today as it is. What pride! Flamengo fans, enjoy it! Because this moment will truly be enduring, due to everything that has been built in recent years -, highlighted the youth academy product of the Rubro-Negro, who adds:

— Filipe Luís, my friend, you have a brilliant future ahead. You are an amazing guy, I wish you all the luck in the world, even more so. You are already a super successful coach, despite being young -, pointed out Júlio César in a video posted on Instagram.

What did Flamengo do in Doha, Qatar?

At the Ahmed bin Ali Stadium, Mengão prevented PSG (FRA) from confirming their favoritism. Thus, Filipe Luís's team never stopped running until the overtime.

As a result, the final ended in a 1-1 draw, leading to penalties. However, fatigue took its toll, and the team from Rio missed four shots. The decision, however, was still thrilling for the veteran idol.

— May other years like this come. And may other Brazilian clubs look up to Flamengo so that the country has an increasingly competitive Brazilian Championship. Football enthusiasts want to see competitiveness and a strong tournament. Congratulations to my Flamengo. Next year, there will be more -, stated the former goalkeeper.

How did the 2025 season end for Flamengo?

With the end of the World Cup, Flamengo concluded the 2025 cycle with the titles of the Super Cup, Carioca, Libertadores, Brasileirão, Derby of the Americas, and the Challenger Cup. Thus, the squad will begin their rest, with the date for returning to training in 2026 yet to be determined.
