Matchups between Flamengo's direct rivals in the fight to escape the bottom of the table could even help the Rubro-Negro in this final stretch of the Brazilian Championship. But the players of the Gávea team aren't having any of it. Captain Leonardo Moura, for example, warns that the team needs to do its job, win matches, and not rely on others.

Leo explains that he is indeed paying attention to the other games and the results that could benefit Flamengo, but he remembers that there is no point in everything going well if the team fails to beat Guarani at Engenhão.

"Of course I look at the table, I see the results that can help, but that's no use if we don't do our part. Our duty is to beat Guarani. That's what will help us. We can't depend on others," he said.

The full-back also recalls 2005, his first year at Flamengo, when the team also suffered a difficult situation in the final stretch of the championship. For him, 2010 is being a little better than that season.

"Today the situation is much more comfortable. It's up to us to get out of this situation and move away from the bottom of the table. I'm sure we'll play a good game. We respect Guarani a lot, but we'll fight for our result, which is a victory," he concluded.
