Of course, it's not just football. And on the afternoon of this Wednesday (9), the official field at the Gávea headquarters was the stage for yet another demonstration of how the beautiful game can make a difference in people's lives. Midfielder Diego, at the invitation of the eternal star Júlio Cesar Uri Geller and Fla Master, played a game with children from Complexo do Lins, a community in the North Zone of Rio de Janeiro, on the pitch that has already hosted so many Flamengo stars.
"It was a very special day, not only for me, but for them as well. Their smiles, the joy of these kids, is contagious. It was a great pleasure to be with them and I hope to have more opportunities, which will certainly come. I will cherish this day as an excellent memory," said the number 35.

On Sunday morning everyone returns to work in Vargem Grande. Flamengo's next game in the Brasileirão will be on Wednesday the 16th, against América-MG, in Minas Gerais.
