This Saturday (June 13.06), Flamengo members can enjoy a day of great football at the Gávea clubhouse. The José Bastos Padilha stadium will host three youth soccer matches: under-15, under-17, and under-20. All teams will face Tigres do Brasil.
Among the juniors, the oldest of the three, the highlight goes to Robinho, who scored his first goal for the Manto Sagrado in the last match of the Rio Cup, when Flamengo beat Volta Redonda 2-0. "I celebrated a lot. I was very happy to score for the first time in a Flamengo jersey. It was my fifth game, and I'd been looking for it. I played well, making plays, but I was just missing the goal. Now the anxiety has passed, I feel lighter, and I hope to have many joys at this great club. It was a beautiful goal. I received the ball and hit it first time. I have to thank my teammates. We've been playing great games," he says.
The U-20 team, which is also competing in the Brazilian Championship in that category, leads the Rio Cup with 23 points. The U-17 team is in fifth place with 21 points. The U-15 team is battling for the top spot, in second place with 23 points.
