Recopa a battle? Filipe Luís reveals plan to beat Lanús in Argentina | OneFootball

Flamengo faces Lanús (ARG) in the first leg of the Recopa Sudamericana

Flamengo defeated Botafogo 2-1 this Sunday (15th), in the Campeonato Carioca, and now shifts focus to the Recopa Sudamericana final. Filipe Luís mentioned the planning for the clash against Lanús (ARG) on Thursday (19th), in Argentina.

— About Thursday (19th), I don’t believe football is war. I believe we have to be better than our opponents (Lanús) and have possession. If we go to war, we’ll end up with a player sent off — said Filipe Luís during a press conference this Sunday (15th).

— But without a doubt, victories help break that negative phase we had. It’s never easy to play in Argentina, it’s never easy to play against teams that play in the Libertadores. The win was important for us to arrive confident for the final — he concluded.
