The leader of the current Flamengo squad, number 3 Fábio Luciano, wants the team to approach the match against Ivinhema with great seriousness. The captain recalled the loss to Resende and said that Flamengo cannot repeat the same mistakes in next Wednesday's match.

"We went in as favorites and were surprised. It's good to open our eyes. We're already vaccinated. We'll try to play a much better game against Ivinhema than we did against Resende. We have to be very careful, because it will be a tough match. Inter, for example, was surprised in the first round. If we want to win, we'll have to go all out and fight hard."

Fábio Luciano said that winning the Copa do Brasil is the biggest dream of the red-black squad.

"Winning the Copa do Brasil is the biggest dream for all of us here. I've already won it once and I know it's a very important title for a player's career. Plus, it brings greater peace of mind for the Brazilian Championship."
