The Brasileirão 2022 is already underway, a tournament that does not give space and that over the years distances itself more from the rest of the championships in South America. This is mainly due to the level of squads, equality, and players capable of leaping European football.
Atlético Mineiro will try to retain the title of a champion. However it won’t be easy against rivals like Palmeiras or Flamengo, the main candidates to become champions. This year there will be more historic teams missing than ever with Cruzeiro, Vasco da Gama, or Gremio which are right now in Serie B. Either way, others like Botafogo have new projects with the great economic potential to fight among the best.
Others are also growing, such as Fortaleza or Ceará, which have magnificent social support in the northeast of the country. On the other hand, other giants such as Corinthians, São Paulo, or Internacional remain one step below the most powerful clubs and despite the important investments they are not capable of leaping in the quality they are looking for.
The first day left us with many pleasant surprises, where many teams banged on the table to let everyone know that they will not only be competing in this tournament but that their goal is to be champions of the Brasileirão Serie A this season.
