On Sunday (01), Flamengo faces Corinthians in the Supercopa do Brasil final, in Brasília. Before the match, goalkeeper Felipe, who played for both clubs, commented on the game and emphasized that he will be cheering for Mengão.
— It's impossible for my heart not to be divided at this moment, right? These are two teams where I was fortunate to play for quite a long time, to win titles. I played with great players, but everyone knows, it was never something I hid, that I have always been a Flamengo fan since I was a child — he began.
— I was born in Rio de Janeiro, my whole family is from Rio. Against anyone that Corinthians plays, I will always be cheering for Corinthians. But against Flamengo, it weighs a little more, my heart is a bit more Flamengo — concluded the former Flamengo player.
Felipe joined Flamengo in 2011 and stayed until 2015, playing nearly 200 matches wearing the red and black jersey. During this time, the player won three titles with the Most Beloved: one Copa do Brasil and two Campeonato Carioca titles.
Thus, Flamengo and Corinthians, Felipe’s former clubs, face each other this Sunday (01). The match takes place at Estádio Mané Garrincha, in Brasília, valid for the Supercopa do Brasil and kicks off at 4pm (Brasília time).
