"The feeling is that we could have come away with all three points given the way we created chances and created chances. Even coming off a demanding match like the one against Fluminense, we managed to dominate the field once again. Taking all this into consideration, it's not a bad result, but it's not what we wanted. The important thing was the team's attitude and the way they played. Now we have to continue like this. We don't have time to dwell on what happened, as we already have a very difficult match against Fluminense. We need to focus on that," said Diego.

"It's a team that's constantly under pressure and has super high expectations. Even in classics, we can see how our opponents behave, and we manage to dominate. The effort is to quickly change the game and play decisive matches one after the other. Even with this high pace, the team is in perfect condition; you don't see anyone going down with cramp or anything in the final minutes. The dedication has been immense," concluded the number 35.
