‘Flaco Roque’ duo on fire, now Palmeiras’ attacking stars | OneFootball

In the last five games of Palmeiras, the combination between Flaco López and Vitor Roque has shown that the affectionate nickname given by the fans — “Flaco Roque” — is no exaggeration. Together, they were responsible for a large part of the team's offensive performance, consolidating themselves as the main engine of goals and assists.

Great numbers

The balance is impressive: Palmeiras scored 10 goals in this period, and seven of them had direct participation from the duo. Flaco López shone by scoring five goals, while Vitor Roque contributed with two goals and four assists, showing that, in addition to finishing, he knows how to distribute and create opportunities for his teammates.

The presence of Flaco and Roque has transformed Palmeiras' attack into a force that had been missing in recent games. With intelligent movements, precise passes, and accurate finishes, they have been the escape valve for Palmeiras' attack.

Memes on social media

The great moment being experienced by the Palmeiras duo has generated a lot of buzz on social media, with both being compared to Bebeto and Romário, joking about the players' understanding on the field.

Palmeiras continues to count on this partnership to maintain the good phase, and the “Flaco Roque” seems to be just starting to write its history at the club.
