BEWARE OF BOAVISTA

"Boavista had a great campaign. In the first phase, they beat Vasco, made the game very difficult against us (Flamengo's 3-2 victory on the 6th) and even eliminated Fluminense on penalties in the semifinal. It will be a very difficult game, but we will work hard during the week to face this new challenge," concluded the Flamengo striker.
