Bet on boldness to win the three points

Campinas, sp) - The game is away from home, the opponent is a direct contender for positions in the Brasileirão table, and Flamengo is going through a less than positive period in the competition. In other words, there's no better way to turn things around. That's how the Flamengo players think as they travel to Campinas to face Guarani this Sunday (August 29.08th) at the Brinco de Ouro da Princesa Stadium.
According to experienced defender Ronaldo Angelim, the team simply needs to be a little more attentive, both defensively and offensively, and cannot waste potential chances to kill the game when they have them.
"The group is experienced. We won't lack composure. The group is strong and we perhaps just need a little more focus. Against Atlético, we could have added at least one more point. The team needs to be cohesive and try not only to concede few goals but also to score them. It's better to win 4-3 than to lose 1-0. We'll have to attack more, go after Guarani, because we want to win and close the gap on those ahead in the standings," said the number 4.
Left-back Juan agrees and believes that team compactness is crucial in such an important match. Furthermore, the number 6 player urges the group to remain calm as they seek another victory.
"We have to play calmly and have a good game both technically and tactically. Our team is well-organized. We can't just defend, we also have to go on the attack, look for goals and try to leave Campinas with the three points," he concluded.
