FOLLOW THE LEADER! Even playing away, Flamengo defeated Corinthians by 2 to 1, coming from behind, and extended their lead at the top of the Brasileirão. The 'hero' this Sunday (28) was Luiz Araújo, who came on in the second half and silenced the Neo Química Arena. The number 7 sent a bold message to the Nation after the match.
“If we continue playing this football that we have been playing, we will definitely come out with this title,” said Luiz Araújo, still on the pitch of the Neo Química Arena. The winger came on in the second half as the third option, behind Carrascal and Plata. Despite the 'uncomfortable' situation, the player praised the team spirit.
— The secret of Flamengo is the group. A very qualified group, with great players, it doesn't matter who starts or comes off the bench, we always deliver. Today I came off the bench and was lucky to score this goal, but it wasn't just me, the whole group worked hard. We knew how to suffer in the first half, it was very difficult. The second half was better, we managed to impose our rhythm, our game, and thank God we got the three points and will continue to lead, which is the most important —, said Luiz Araújo.
— When I'm off the field, I'm cheering a lot for those who are playing. It could be Lino, Plata, today it was Carrascal, so I think that's the strength of our group, it doesn't matter who is there, it's Flamengo, we are all together, because Flamengo has to win. Today we came with a lot of fatigue from the Libertadores, so we were very happy to return winning in the Brasileiro, we had drawn at home and today these three points put us in the lead and we will go all out —, added the number 7.
In summary, after playing nine minutes against Corinthians, Luiz Araújo is hoping for new opportunities this Thursday (02), against Cruzeiro, at Maracanã. Thus, the match kicks off at 8:30 PM (Brasília time), with full coverage by Coluna do Fla.
