Starting the year with a win is always good. But what about starting the year with a 7-1 rout? Of course, it's even better. However, a victory by such a large margin can also have adverse effects, such as a natural relaxation and overconfidence. Apparently, however, the Flamengo youth team is already prepared for this. The players talked extensively in the locker room after the victory over Duque de Caxias and remain humble and focused on the Rio de Janeiro title.

Left-back Jorbison is one of those who believe that the team is baptized against any kind of high heel, as they say in football slang, and guarantees that even the players who are part of the professional group and end up going down to play in the juniors are embedded in the objective of winning the State Championship also at the base level.

"After the game, we talked about it, about avoiding complacency and things like that. Everyone on this team has some experience, and I don't think that's going to happen. Everyone really wants this title. We, who were relegated, want it too. Playing is important to keep up the pace and also because we want to win this State Championship," said the full-back.
