— What brought (Flamengo) here? A lot of hard work, sacrifice, and on Wednesday we’ll have more. And as I said when I arrived, I was going to put an end to the hegemony of Portuguese coaches in Brazil,” said José Boto after the Libertadores title.

Does Abel Ferreira have good memories of Flamengo?
