On the eve of the clash between Flamengo and Estudiantes, valid for the quarter-finals of the Conmebol Libertadores, goalkeeper Agustín Rossi highlighted the difficulty of the match and the importance of taking advantage of the home field in the first game.
“I played there, I know what the Libertadores means for Estudiantes, there are no easy games in the competition, whether in Argentina, Venezuela, Ecuador, or any other country. We know the difficulty of each game. On the field, it's 11 against 11, with tactical, technical, and physical issues involved”, stated the Argentine on Tuesday, in a press conference.
Rossi has a lot of experience and, at 30 years old, has played for several teams:
Flamengo hosts Estudiantes this Thursday (18th) at 9:30 PM, at the Maracanã stadium, and seeks to build an advantage before the return match in Argentina.
“It will be a very contested, physical game. We will have the advantage of playing the first match at home, now we need to try to play a great game here and have a good chance of securing this spot in Argentina,” the goalkeeper concluded.
