Every player who joins Flamengo knows the pressure is immense. Whether it's fighting for a title or trying to escape the bottom of a competition, as is the case with the team's current form in the Brazilian Championship. Those who grow up at the club, therefore, already have even greater knowledge of the situation.
That's the case with goalkeeper Marcelo Lomba. He knows the team will have to work hard in the match against Atlético-MG on Saturday (13/11) in Sete Lagoas, but warns that the red-and-blacks don't even want to think about the relegation zone. The goalkeeper also says that everyone will be focused on Galo's game in the Copa Sudamericana tonight.
"We'll watch Atlético's game in the South American Cup to analyze it. We know they won't be at full strength, but I'm preparing myself and I'll watch their game so I can arrive on Saturday knowing how they like to play," said the player, who knows that the red-black team needs to pick up points at this moment.
"Until we eliminate the risk of relegation, we have to earn points. I don't know how many exactly, whether 45 or 44, but I think two wins will get us out of there. Our top priority is to focus all our efforts on beating Atlético. It's a big step toward getting out of this zone," he added.
After training this Wednesday morning (10.11), Lomba and the red-black group headed to a hotel in the west zone of Rio, where they had lunch and rested before returning to the CT for the afternoon activity, at 16:30 pm, also in Vargem Grande.
