Jefté speaks

– I’ve come on in some matches and made good use of the minutes I’ve been playing. We work very hard day to day, and the assist is the result of that, of our work in training. I was very happy because I know how much is expected of us here for being at Palmeiras, which is a huge club. Being able to contribute with an assist in a big win was very rewarding for me. I also have to thank the team for putting in a great performance – he said

– It will be a difficult Libertadores match, we know that, but we have every condition to win and qualify. The fans have been supporting us, always encouraging us, cheering us on, and Thursday will be no different. They will put on a great show and, God willing, we’ll get qualification – he added
