Willians will 'duel' with Montillo, and Flamengo is focused on playing football.
The midfielder emphasized that Flamengo will need to be wary of their opponent's quick counter-attacks.

Argentine Montillo has already been a tormentor of Flamengo this season. Recently signed by Cruzeiro, Flamengo's opponent this Sunday (November 28.11th) at 17 pm, at the Raulino de Oliveira stadium in Volta Redonda, the midfielder was playing for Universidad de Chile when he faced and beat Flamengo in the 2010 Libertadores Cup.
But as the popular saying goes: those who live in the past belong in a museum, and the Flamengo players aren't worried about statistics or past results against their Argentine rivals. Perhaps the most 'concerned' is Willians, the watchdog of the Flamengo defense, who should have a great duel with Montillo.
"It's another battle I have ahead of me. He's an intelligent player, like many in Brazil. We need to be attentive and mark him closely so he doesn't unbalance the game," Willians analyzed, highlighting the strength of the Cruzeiro team as a whole.
"Cruzeiro's team is very good, they know how to behave well on the field, they are competing for the title and will come to pressure us, to try to win. We have to be calm to put into practice what we have been training. Mainly so that we don't concede a goal or dangerous counter-attacks from the opponent," recommended the Flamengo midfielder.
Without as many defensive responsibilities in the Flamengo team as his teammate, Marquinhos adopts a different stance when the subject is Montillo. Having not been part of the team that was eliminated from the Libertadores Cup, the attacking midfielder prefers to think about what Flamengo will do, not the other way around.
"We have to do our job, forget about the opponent and think more about our team. We have to give our all on the field if we want something better," Marquinhos concluded.
