Thiago Silva eyes Copa do Brasil glory to crown Fluminense return | OneFootball

This Thursday, Fluminense hosted Juventude at the Maracanã and won 1-0, with a goal by the experienced Thiago Silva in stoppage time. The player celebrated the strike and revealed his desire to win a title before ending his career.

“When I wanted to come back, it was with the intention of helping, not with goals, but on and off the field. When we put on the armband, people think it’s just a strip. But we do everything we can to help. I’m working hard to win a title for the club. It could be the Copa do Brasil. Maybe the last of my career,” he said.

Thiago Silva also asked the fans for patience, as the squad is still adapting to Luís Zubeldía’s working style.

“I ask you to have a little patience with us. It’s a new project. We’re going to make mistakes. We have little time to train, and the matches will also serve for that,” he concluded.

With the result, the Rio de Janeiro Tricolor, coming off a loss to Mirassol, reached 41 points, in seventh place. The team’s next match will be against Vasco. The ball rolls next Monday at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time), at São Januário, for the 29th round of the Brasileirão.
