The Empire of Love continues its strong showing at Gávea. The duo has already scored 24 goals this season and has been instrumental in the red-and-black team's strong run in the Campeonato Carioca and Copa Santander Libertadores. That's why Vagner Love is increasingly excited about the future of this partnership with Adriano.
The dream of being the top scorer in the Campeonato Carioca remains alive for the number 9. And he doesn't mind sharing the prize with his teammate.
"I hope he continues to be my rival in the battle for top scorer, because then everyone wins. With both of us scoring goals, we'll benefit Flamengo, and that's the most important thing. If we win the title, and both of us come out as top scorers, it will be great," said the Artilheiro do Amor.
With each passing match, the red-and-black attack proves its strength. For Love, this is crucial to maintaining focus solely on the field.
"They both have quality. A lot of people questioned it, but we're proving on the field that it's an attack that can work. It's good to score goals, it's good to maintain that number, and we have to keep working to maintain that," he noted.
Hungry
One of the players who wears out the most on the field, Love could be rested for the game against América, but he doesn't even want to consider it. The number 9 is confirmed for the match and guarantees the team won't feel fatigued on Sunday.
"I'm going to the game. Everyone trained, this is the team that will play, and I hope nothing happens so that everyone is 100%. Flamengo has a very good squad, they are high-quality players, and no one wants to be left out. There's a trip, a midweek game, it's exhausting, but as long as we get a good rest, we'll have the legs for the next games," he added.
