In the second round of the Campeonato Carioca, Flamengo still hasn't lost. And they want to keep it that way. This Sunday (March 28.03), the red-and-blacks face América at Engenhão, looking to maintain their unbeaten streak in the Taça Rio. They've now played six games, with five wins and one draw. For midfielder Toró, with the quality of this squad, it's possible to maintain their strong record and continue dreaming of a second-round title and a fourth in the state championship.

The No. 5 points to the group's strength as one of the key factors in Flamengo's continued pursuit of the titles it covets this season. The midfielder also praises the group's unity, which is free from vanity in the competition for positions.

\

"Our group has quality, regardless of who wears the shirt. It's a quality team, and we have to pay attention to this very good growth. Andrade is a conscientious guy and knows each person's moment. We respect everyone's moments and will work together," he said.

\

Despite this, Toró preaches respect for this Sunday's opponent, and reveals that the team is aware of the difficulties it will face if it wants to win its fourth Rio championship.

"The Carioca is a tough championship. América needs to win, and so do we. We'll work hard to come away with the victory. That's our goal. We have a quality team, and we need to be very careful to maintain this good streak," he added.
