— First of all, it’s a privilege to play in another final with Flamengo. We’re going to have this opportunity, something that is very hard to achieve. We have to value the players’ effort, it’s 75 games, on Wednesday it will be 76, if I’m not mistaken. A lot of effort from my players, we’re having a splendid season. Their hunger and ambition never ends, he said, before adding:
— Every experience is a lesson. It serves the players, but in the United States it was a different atmosphere, different pitch than today, different ball… We’re going to face the current Champions League winner, the best team in the world with the best coach in the world. We’re going to try to play a perfect game. It’s the only way to win this match against this opponent, he concluded.
