After last night's 1-0 loss to Palmeiras in São Paulo, captain Fábio Luciano lamented another round without a win for the red-and-black team. The experienced defender stated that now is the time to correct mistakes and return to winning ways.

"We can't go five games without a win, but we also can't lose our cool, because that would be worse. We were very upset with the result, but now we have to correct our mistakes and beat Cruzeiro. We have to be upset about this streak, lose a few nights of sleep, but on Sunday the team will be back to winning ways. We lost a few players, but that's normal in football. Some reinforcements are arriving, and we hope they feel at home soon. Hopefully, Vandinho continues to score the goals we saw him score for Avaí."
