After Diego Tardelli decided the Guanabara Cup with a goal in the 46th minute of the second half, Flamengo defeated Cienciano-PER last night at Maracanã with another late goal. This time, the Flamengo hero was supporter Marcinho, who, like Tardelli, came off the bench to decide another match for Flamengo.

- "I'm happy to be able to help Flamengo. It was another difficult game, but the team never gave up, and we managed to win with dedication, determination, and commitment."

The player made a point of praising the strength of the red-black group.

- "Flamengo's squad is very good. Everyone has what it takes to wear this shirt, and Joel is the one who benefits from this. In recent games, the players who came off the bench decided the matches."
