Rick praises Corinthians after win over Minas, eyes LNF upturn | OneFootball

On the night of last Friday (10), Corinthians secured an important 3-1 victory over Minas at Wlamir Marques Gymnasium, in a match valid for the 12th round of the National Futsal League (LNF). Rick, one of the scorers in the match, gave an interview after the final whistle and highlighted the squad’s confidence in the work done every day, while also looking ahead to the team’s next steps in the competition.

With the win, Timão reached 12 points, temporarily moved into 11th place in the LNF, and entered the playoff qualification zone, opening up a gap over the teams at the bottom of the table.

When analyzing Corinthians’ current moment, Rick said the team had been putting in good performances, but needed to turn that into results.

“I believe that, like you said, we had been playing well. I think the only evenly matched game was against Joinville, the first game of the League. In the other games, we had a big advantage and were making mistakes in that final third, in that last pass.

But, man, hard work always pays off. I really believe that, and we worked, we’ve been working very hard. We don’t lose faith in what we do every day, and today the result is there. I believe things are going to turn around, we’re going to qualify and, God willing, we’ll have a good playoff run and, who knows, reach the League finals.”

After the win over Minas, Corinthians will return to action in the National Futsal League next Friday (17), at 8 p.m. (Brasília time), when they face São José at Altos de Santana Gymnasium, in a direct clash for positions in the standings.
