Flamengo is the topic of debate during SporTV's programming, with Marcelo Barreto comparing the English national team to the Brazilian club. Barreto recalls an old comparison involving Flamengo and questions if England can follow a similar path to the one recently taken by the club. In the years leading up to Flamengo's continental double championship, Barreto used to say that Flamengo was the 'England of the Libertadores'. The analogy referred to the fact that both powers had a huge tradition, but had a number of titles considered small in relation to the size of their histories. Now, with Flamengo consolidated among the biggest winners in South America, the journalist believes that the scenario has reversed and put the English national team at the center of the discussion during the World Cup. Marcelo Barreto rescues the old comparison and highlights that the Brazilian club has completely changed its level in recent years. Since 2019, Flamengo has won new continental titles and has become one of the biggest champions of the competition. The English national team, led by Harry Kane, seeks to repeat the transformation experienced by Flamengo and win its second World Cup. England won its only World Cup in 1966 and has not returned to the final since then. Even without lifting the trophy for decades, England continues to be pointed out as one of the forces of world football.
