Bruno Henrique admits lapse in focus, but hails Flamengo win over Santos | OneFootball

Flamengo defeated Santos by 3 to 2 this Sunday at Maracanã. The Rubro-Negro opened up a three-goal lead and saw their opponent close the gap in the final minutes, but held on to the result and remains in the fight for the Brazilian Championship title.

Forward Bruno Henrique highlighted the importance of the victory and mentioned the team's lack of focus at the end of the match.

“The game became easy when we made it 3-0. With two lapses, they scored two goals. This serves as a warning. We can’t let our guard down. Congratulations on the three points. It’s very important for the championship. We’ll keep fighting until the last game,” declared the player.

Bruno Henrique also emphasized that the team will focus on avoiding new scares in the final rounds of the national competition.

“We pushed forward too much instead of shaking up the Santos team. They brought on some youngsters to add speed. This serves as a lesson for the next games,” concluded Bruno Henrique.

Flamengo returns to the field next Saturday, when they face Sport at Arena Pernambuco. The match was postponed from the 12th round of the Brazilian Championship.
