The drought is over, the smiles are back, and confidence is high. Flamengo's squad arrived in Rio de Janeiro early Thursday evening (September 19.09) relieved, happy, and more united than ever after their 2-1 comeback victory over Grêmio Prudente. The result was celebrated by the Flamengo fans, who returned to the Marvelous City highlighting the positive atmosphere within the group and the players' unity, which can lead the team back to the top of the table.

Defender Ronaldo Angelim believes that the victory, especially in the heroic way it happened, gives the squad even more motivation to seek better results in each round until the end of the Brasileirão.

"This will boost the team's morale. I hope we can get victories from now on. We haven't won in a long time. This will give us an extra boost, and from now on, things will change," he said.

Toró believes that the positive atmosphere that developed within the group after the game gives the team a positive outlook. According to him, Sunday's derby is crucial to kickstarting a comeback.

"All the players were very happy on the plane. It's been a while since that happened. We'll keep this good mood going and try to perform as well as possible in Sunday's derby. I hope we can get out of this situation as soon as possible and gain some positions," the midfielder added.
