Three years later, Renato returned to Flamengo with many fond memories of the Rubro-Negro. Among them, an unforgettable match against Fluminense on October 4, 2006. On that occasion, in a game also valid for the Brazilian Championship, the midfielder scored twice in the 4-1 victory for the Gávea team. Aware of the importance of a victory in a Fla x Flu match, the player is eager to face the Tricolor das Laranjeiras again.
"I always see a Fla x Flu match as an important game. It's a beautiful classic to watch and play. I remember many good things, especially the 4-1 win where I scored two free-kick goals. It's different, for sure, and very good," said the midfielder, in an interview with Flamengo's official website.
The supporter knows that this type of derby is like a different kind of championship within the Brasileirão and knows that the team cannot make mistakes if it wants to come away with the victory.
"Fla x Flu is a unique competition, just like the other derbies. This rivalry is very good, it affects both sides, and we know that a victory can give us a huge morale boost. Whoever shows more determination and makes fewer mistakes will achieve victory," explained the player, who promised a lot of effort to achieve the win.
"It's a team that's well-integrated, first of all, but a derby is always difficult and I'm sure everyone will do their best to get the victory," he added.
