Flamengo's squad returned this morning to Gávea for their final training session before tomorrow's Campeonato Carioca final against Botafogo at Maracanã. Around 300 Flamengo fans from across Brazil were at the club to send positive energy to the players.

Coach Cuca, team captain Fábio Luciano, Obina, and Léo Moura were the most celebrated during the traditional recreational training session on the eve of the games. Cuca's mother, Dona Nilde Stival, and his wife, Rejane Stival, were also in Gávea to support the red-and-black coach, who was one of the standout performers during the game.

For midfielder Ibson, the support of the fans is always very important on the eve of a decision.

"Our fans are amazing. There's no fan base like ours in the world. They showed up in force for training, and that's really important because it motivates the team and instills confidence. I'm sure they'll be there tomorrow too."
