Arrascaeta on Flamengo’s Club World Cup hopes: speaks from heart | OneFootball

Champion of (almost) everything with Flamengo, Arrascaeta doesn't know how he'll react if he wins the World Cup

Just one title is missing for Arrascaeta to 'complete the game' with the Flamengo jersey. This single 'pending' can be resolved on Wednesday (17), when Mengão plays the Club World Cup final against PSG (FRA) in Qatar. Asked about how he will feel if he lifts this trophy, the number 10 doesn't know how he will react.

“Ah, there's no explanation for what we might feel if we win this trophy. But we are dreaming about it with the fans,” said Arrascaeta, in an interview with TV Globo. The star's comment came minutes after the 2-0 victory over Pyramids (EGY) on Saturday (13), when the Uruguayan provided two assists.

AND THE FINAL AGAINST PSG, ARRASCAETA?

In addition to talking about the expectation of the dreamed second world championship, Arrascaeta projected the challenge that will be against PSG. The star acknowledges that the European champion is the favorite, but believes that the Rubro-Negro will surpass themselves to reach glory.

— We are happy to take another step. Our goal was to reach the final against a great rival. We respect PSG a lot, but we have to think about ourselves. It's about resting and being in the best possible shape for the game, which will be a great match. Certainly (Flamengo can win). It's a very mature group, with many experienced players. We are worn out, but it's another game where we need to excel —, he added.

WHEN WILL THE WORLD CUP FINAL BE?

State, national, and continental champion, Arrascaeta will have the chance to win the world on Wednesday (17) against PSG (FRA), starting at 2 PM (Brasília time). The Coluna do Fla is in Qatar and will cover the duel. Additionally, Globo (open), SporTV (closed), GETV, and CazéTV (YouTube).
