Chilean commentator says even Christ the Redeemer applauded Samuel Lino | OneFootball

Chilean commentator Alberto 'Trovador do Gol' Lopez lauded Samuel Lino's winner as Flamengo beat Remo 1-0 in Belém. The club's matches are being shown live to neighbouring countries.

According to Coluna Do Fla, the game was called for Chile and Lopez exclaimed, "Até o Cristo Redentor começa a aplaudir" after Lino found the net.

Lino struck on 19 minutes of the second half, a finish the goalkeeper could not keep out, prompting celebrations from the Rubro-Negra fanbase.

Lopez became popular with Flamengo supporters in 2019 for his calls of Gabigol's goals in the Copa Libertadores final against River Plate of Argentina. He now narrates on Fanatiz, which airs across Latin America and the United States, alongside Brazilian analyst Renata Almada for Brasileiro matches.

The victory moved Mengão top of the Brasileirão on 54 points, one ahead of Palmeiras, who drew 0-0 with Botafogo at the Engenhão. There are 12 rounds remaining in the competition.
