Current Brazilian champion Flamengo has not been having a good campaign in the 2010 edition of the competition, but the players emphasize the quality and competence of the red-and-black squad. With a group of experienced athletes who have great achievements on their resumes, Flamengo knows it can demonstrate a high level of football in the next two rounds of the competition.
Renato is betting on the group's seriousness and commitment to achieve positive results until the end of the championship. The number 11 has nothing but praise for the squad and guarantees that the team will give their all in the match against Cruzeiro.
"Because we have a good squad, people have to work hard. Our team is very serious, we have a competent coach, quality players, champions, national team players. We have to do what it takes to avoid relegation and we will work towards that. We can't let people think we're safe already, especially since we've only taken one important step. Guarani was a direct opponent. We have to be aware that this game will decide our fate," he explained.
The result for Flamengo could help their rival, Fluminense, who are fighting for the national title against Cruzeiro, Flamengo's opponent this weekend. But the Flamengo players aren't even thinking about that.
"We're not thinking about that. First, we have to think about ourselves. We have a duty to fulfill; these are the last two games. We need to play with determination and get six points. It's our only chance to qualify for an international competition, and we're going to pursue it," he concluded.
