Luciano celebrates win and goal against Juventude | OneFootball

After a 1-0 victory over Juventude on Tuesday (21) at MorumBIS in São Paulo (SP), in the first leg of the fifth round of the Copa do Brasil, forward Luciano spoke in the mixed zone.

“I think we could have scored more goals and wrapped up the match today, with all due respect to Juventude. But, unfortunately, we were wasteful with our finishing. Now we have to wait and work for Saturday. Then, in the week of the return leg, focus all our strength again to face Juventude,” said the No. 10.

The forward also commented on the positive run he is enjoying with the team, having scored in each of the last three matches.

“I have to thank my family and my teammates for this moment. Also the fans, because when they give me confidence, I know what I’m capable of and that I can help in some way. I hope that on Saturday I can score another goal and help the team earn all three points in the Brazilian Championship,” he added.

Tricolor’s next match will be against Mirassol on Saturday (25), at 9 p.m., at Brinco de Ouro stadium in Campinas (SP), for the 13th round of the Brasileirão. In the Copa do Brasil, the second leg will be on May 13 (Wednesday), at 7 p.m., at Alfredo Jaconi stadium in Caxias do Sul (RS).
