The day after another red-black victory in the Guanabara Cup, this time 1-0 in the match against Bangu, the squad resumed activities at Ninho do Urubu, aiming for the first classic of the year. Mais Querido will seek the fourth consecutive victory in the State this Saturday (27) against Vasco, and preparation for the match began on the afternoon of this Thursday (25).

While the group that started yesterday's match did regenerative work at Flamengo's Performance Excellence Center (CEP FLA), the other players headed to Field 4 for tactical training after pre-workout exercises in the gym. Coach Paulo César Carpegiani outlined the team that will take the field for the derby and provided guidance on positioning, analyzing the opponent's playing style.

At Field 5, defender Juan participated in specific physical training led by trainer Gustavo Araújo. Meanwhile, Berrío continued his recovery process at CEP FLA. Under the guidance of physiotherapists Fred Manhães and Walteriano da Silva, the Colombian forward continues to do muscle-strengthening work in his quest to return to the field.

At the end of training, two key players from yesterday's triumph appeared in the Victorino Chermont Press Room to give a press conference. Rômulo, who had a consistent performance in midfield with good ball possession and defensive solidity, and Lincoln, who scored the winning goal, his first as a professional Flamengo player, commented on the significance of the result.

Another topic discussed was the classic against Vasco, which will be played at Maracanã at 17 pm this Saturday (27). The athletes previewed the match, highlighting the precautions that should be taken in the match. In addition, the red-black commander Paulo César Carpegiani positively nodded to the possibility of the debut of reinforcement Marlos Moreno at the weekend, a striker who was praised by his teammates.
