After the tactical work on the reduced field that marked Wednesday's training (26) at CT George Helal, Fernandinho gave a press conference in the press room. The number 31 spoke about the next challenge for Mais Querido in the Brazilian Championship, against Atlético-MG, this Saturday (29). The striker also spoke about the group's morale for the rest of the competition and guaranteed that, even with an increase in the points difference, the focus remains entirely on the pursuit of the title.

I think the feeling would be one of failure if each athlete wasn't giving their best. If we didn't give our best, didn't reach our limit, or tactically disobeyed what our commander asks of us, then yes, that feeling would arise. Regardless of what happens, we have to give our best and do our part.

It's a classic match between two great teams. This game will have even greater importance. It will be a decisive game, in which both teams will play in a similar way, always attacking. Whoever makes fewer mistakes will have a better chance of achieving a positive result.

I believe it will be a great game, regardless of the venue. Both Mineirão and Independência are good stadiums. We have one goal in mind, which is to play a great game and win. With that in mind, I don't think the field will be an obstacle.

It's not over. Our season can be even better. I have great faith in our potential and I believe it depends on us. Palmeiras and Atlético-MG also have difficult matches ahead. Whoever makes fewer mistakes will certainly win the title, and that's what we're aiming for. The gap doesn't diminish our motivation. From four to six points, the difference remains two wins. We know the difficulty, but we still have six challenges ahead.
