The forward Samuel Lino broke the ‘curse’ and scored one of Flamengo’s goals in the draw against São Paulo, at Vila Belmiro. After the match, the player made a point of talking about his achievement, but also recalled the ‘scare’ he had with the criticism he received at the start of his time at the club.
— For those of us coming from Europe, it was a huge shock for me. When I saw people talking about my moment, that it’s normal to go a while without scoring elsewhere, but here in Brazil there’s so much information. Flamengo is gigantic in the media, so people are quick to criticize, wanting you to score every game –, he said, before concluding:
— But I told a friend the other day that I’m really calm and getting used to it. That’s how Brazilians are, they want to win and that’s fine. I’ll keep working and I know everything is a process and things will get even better –, concluded Samuel Lino to ‘GE TV’.
Samuel Lino arrived as the most expensive signing in the history of Flamengo. Because of this, the spotlight was on the forward. At first, the player started off with good performances, but later ended up being inconsistent.
In the last two games, however, Samuel Lino took advantage of the opportunity and was directly involved in Flamengo’s goals. Against Sport, it was the forward who assisted Bruno Henrique to score, while this Wednesday (05), he scored the second goal for the Rubro-Negro against São Paulo.
With Samuel Lino available, Flamengo faces Santos on Sunday (09), at 6:30 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã. In this way, Coluna do Fla TV will show the details of the match on YouTube, as well as on the website and social media.
