Midfielder Toró could be the big surprise for Flamengo's team in tomorrow's match against Palmeiras in São Paulo. The player has recovered from thigh muscle pain and is in the squad for the match, which is part of the 16th round of the Brazilian Championship.

"I'm recovered from the injury, but I'm not 100% physically. I'm lacking a bit of match fitness, which is normal. I had a good training match yesterday and am available for Caio Júnior. Now is the time to overcome this. We have to get back to winning ways."

For Toró, the team's drop in performance in recent matches is normal. He says the important thing is to maintain the top spot in the championship.

"The Championship is long and difficult. We know that sometimes falling behind is normal. The most important thing is that we're in the front runners, with a chance of fighting for the title."
