Friday night (10) was very special for Flamengo women's football. In a ceremony held at the CBF, Jayanne and Rayanne received their trophies at the 2021 Brasileirão Awards. It is worth remembering that the two were chosen through popular vote, which shows the Nation's support for the sport.
Jay was the first to take the stage. The midfielder's spectacular strike against Minas Brasília in the opening round of the Brasileirão Feminino, at Gávea, was voted the 'Goal of the Championship.' On that occasion, she received the ball from Sorriso and chipped it over the top, leaving the opposing goalkeeper with no chance.
"I was very happy that my goal was chosen as the most beautiful of the competition. I remember the play exactly and can only thank God, my family, my teammates, and, of course, the nation, who voted so heavily on social media. It was great to be here and participate in the great celebration of Brazilian football," said the athlete, with a wide smile on her face after being honored.
Identified with the World's Biggest Fanbase, Rayanne won the Fans' Choice Award. The right-back, who returned to the club in 2021 after a stint with Braga-POR, reiterated her happiness at winning at home.
"I'd like to thank everyone who took the time to vote. The nation is huge, right? There's no way around it. This is a very rewarding moment for our sport, so I'm very satisfied. I hope this happens often in the future. This trophy will be in a very special place. Winning it with my favorite club is priceless," she commented.
With the duo available, Mais Querido debuts in the Brasil Ladies Cup this Sunday (12), at 22 pm, against River Plate, broadcast by SporTV.
