After the activities of this Monday (06) at Ninho do Urubu, the red-black goalkeeper Alex Muralha appeared at the Victorino Chermont Press Room, where he gave a press conference.
Registered for the CONMEBOL Libertadores Bridgestone with the number 1 shirt, Muralha commented on the debut opponent in the most important competition on the continent, which will start this Wednesday (08). With the key turned, the decision of the Guanabara Cup is already in the past according to the goalkeeper, who preaches total focus on the important confrontation that is approaching.
See the main excerpts:
Fla-Flu
In football, there's no time to mope. We have another big game coming up on Wednesday, and we have to turn things around. Our main focus is the Copa Libertadores.
Chat with trainer Vitor Hugo
We always have this conversation in post-match training. It's something we have routinely. Yesterday was an unusual match; collectively, we didn't play well, but we still managed to draw and take it to penalties. Just because we lost a game doesn't mean everything is wrong. The Carioca is still ongoing, and we'll fight for the title.
Confrontation against San Lorenzo
They're a very intelligent and strong team. We need to prepare as best we can. We watched some videos and will study their team in more depth. At the end of training, we also received information sheets. Tomorrow we'll have an even better understanding of what we'll face.
Return to Maracanã
It's certainly a huge motivation to play at Maracaibo in front of our fans. It's something that hasn't happened much given the stadium's problems. We wanted to play there again in the Libertadores, and we did.
