Cano on a possible Fla-Flu Libertadores final: Why not? | OneFootball

Germán Cano did not hide that it would be special for Fluminense to play a potential Libertadores final against Flamengo. The Tricolor striker spoke about the possibility this Saturday (19), during a Conmebol event in Rio de Janeiro’s South Zone.

Fluminense secured a place in the semifinal after eliminating Platense in the quarterfinals. Now, Tricolor will face Palmeiras in search of a spot in the final. On the other side of the bracket, Flamengo and Estudiantes are also fighting for a place in the final.

Given the possibility of a Fla-Flu in the final, Cano did not rule out the matchup and highlighted the balance among the four semifinalists.

“Why not, right? Anyone can go through. We know that all four teams there can reach the final, and for us it would be something special. But there is no favorite and anyone can make it.”

Before thinking about a possible final against their rival, however, Fluminense will first have Palmeiras ahead. Cano celebrated qualification against Platense and praised the moment the club is experiencing in the competition.

“A unique moment in the club’s history. We are very happy to put the team back in a semifinal. We worked very hard to get where we are, and thank God we are among the four best. It is extra motivation because everyone knows how difficult it is to get here.”
