Kaio Jorge speaks out before Flamengo v Cruzeiro: "Thursday is..." | OneFootball

What did Kayo Jorge say after Cruzeiro's defeat to Vasco?

Cruzeiro lost to Vasco this Saturday (27) and, with that, Flamengo has a chance to increase its lead over the Minas Gerais team. After the clash at São Januário, Kaio Jorge regretted the negative result, but already sent a message treating the duel on Thursday (02) against Rubro-Negro as a decision.

— We knew it would be a very difficult match, playing here is complicated. We started the game a bit off and conceded a goal, which made it difficult. When we got into the game in the second half, we conceded another, which made it even more difficult -, he declared, before concluding:

— But now we don't have time to lament, the Brasileirão is very complicated. And on Thursday we will face Flamengo. So, on Thursday Cruzeiro will have a decision -, concluded Kaio Jorge in an interview with ‘Amazon Prime’ after this Saturday's (27) game.

WHAT IS CRUZEIRO'S SITUATION IN THE BRASILEIRÃO?

With the defeat to Vasco, Cruzeiro remained in second place, with 50 points. Therefore, it can still have the distance to Flamengo increased, if Rubro-Negro beats Corinthians, on Sunday (28).

Still in this round, Cruzeiro could have a bigger loss. This is because, if Palmeiras defeats Bahia, it will assume the vice-leadership of the Brasileirão. Thus, the team from Belo Horizonte will have to ‘dry’ the direct competitors for the title.
