"We need to regain our confidence and the positive path we were on. It's very important that we start winning again and keep some clean sheets. We know that when our team doesn't concede, with the quality we have, we'll be able to score. If we continue with this humility and everyone helps, we'll be able to achieve our goals," said Arão.

Regarding Rueda's style on the field, the player explained what the coach asked of him. "We're helping each other. We've been pressing hard, shrinking the field, and giving our opponents less space. This helps us concede fewer counterattacks and, consequently, fewer goals," he stated.

Arão also commented on the battle at the top of the Brazilian Championship table. "Corinthians has a big lead, but it's not over yet. The Brazilian Championship will only end when someone actually wins. As long as we have the chance, we'll keep winning, and who knows, we might get there," he analyzed.

Flamengo's next challenge will be against Paraná, on Wednesday (30), in the quarterfinals of the Primeira Liga, at the Kléber Andrade stadium, in Cariacica (ES), at 21:45 pm.
