After this morning's recreational training session in Gávea, number 2 Léo Moura praised the red-and-black team's new formation. According to the player, the team's right side has become much stronger with Everton Silva's introduction at full-back and his shift to midfield.

"The left flank has always been one of our team's strengths. Many plays were created on the left flank, and the right flank never had the same strength. But with the new system, the team has also become very strong on the right. Everton Silva came on very well, and we were able to create some plays. We have everything we need to make great plays on the right flank and help Flamengo win."

The player explained a little about his position in the new system adopted by Cuca.

"Many people are saying I'm playing as a midfielder, but that's not true. I'm playing quite wide, practically like a winger. I've played like that in Europe before and it wasn't strange. It worked, and we have to maintain that approach to be able to perform well again."
