— I had many good games, but that one, there’s no way not to mention it. It was special. I scored two goals, helped with three assists. It was an 8-0, a memorable match in the 2025 championship in which we were champions. There’s no way to talk about another game besides that one against Vitória, — he said in an interview with GE.
