On the eve of the match against Grêmio, Leonardo Moura was in tears during a press conference when talking about the possibility of helping his favorite team win the Brazilian title this year. In the club's penultimate title, in 1992, Leo was in the stands cheering on Junior and company in the final against Botafogo. Now, on the field, he was able to make history with his own two feet on a Sunday that will be unforgettable for Flamengo and for the player himself.

Leonardo Moura's career success is intertwined with his time at Gávea. After all, Leo was always considered a good player, having played for several major clubs, but never established himself and never won a title. This happened in 2006, when he won the Copa do Brasil with Flamengo. That was the beginning of a glorious saga for the number 2, who later won the 2007, 2008, and 2009 Carioca Championships, as well as this year's Brasileirão. Because of this, the player doesn't hide his happiness.

"It's exciting to be part of the history of a club like Flamengo. It's priceless. It's hard to hold back the tears, and I just have to say thank you. I can't ask for anything more. I want to stay here forever, for the rest of my life," he celebrated.
