Olympic and world canoeing champion Isaquias Queiroz showed excitement about the Libertadores final between Flamengo and Palmeiras. The Mengão athlete stated that he believes in a resounding victory for the Rubro-Negro in the final.

— Look, I expect nothing less than a real thrashing there, a 4-0 would be more than enough, right? Yeah, I’ll say two goals from Arrascaeta, who’s playing incredibly well, one goal from Bruno Henrique and, man, I think Carrascal is also playing great matches when he comes on and will definitely score one of those four goals — he said, in an interview with Coluna do Fla.

— Flamengo has a squad with many talented players, and we believe, all our fans believe, that they’ll go to Peru and play a great final. Too bad I won’t be able to be there; I have to train, because I also have my part to represent Flamengo. But for sure, depending on the players, the whole delegation, and the club as a whole, I think the guys will go to Peru, play a great final, and bring that trophy back to Brazil once again.” said Isaquias, during an event at the Legislative Chamber of the Federal District, this Wednesday (12).
