Wake up, be well and be healthy. In the long term, I will become a professional player, be successful and help my family not go through difficulties anymore”, he continues.

FEAR OF NOT BEING ABLE TO PLAY ANYMORE

“To be quite honest, at that time, it didn't sink in. I was caught off guard. It was at a time when I was training, and a week later I found out. I didn't react, and after a while I calmed down. But I had a lot of faith that it would pass. It was a moment of sadness, but at the same time, knowing that it was going to work out”, he remembers.

Just like in the under-17s, Flamengo is defeated in the final of the Copa Rio Under-16

The team, which needed to turn around a 3-1 deficit in the first match, failed to take advantage of opportunities and ended up conceding two goals to Vasco in the second half.

As is usually the case in most title-winning games, Flamengo and Vasco played a tight duel at the beginning, with the game very focused on the midfield.

Flamengo had to make up for a 3-1 deficit from the first leg of the U-16 Rio Cup final against Vasco, and ended up losing again, this time 2-0, on Sunday morning (29), at the José Bastos Padilha Stadium, in Gávea. The team worked hard on the field, almost managed to open the scoring on two occasions, but ended up conceding two goals in the second half.


FIRST HALF


As is the case in most title-winning games, Flamengo and Vasco played a tight duel at the beginning, with the game largely concentrated in the midfield. The exceptions were corners and crosses into the box. The first dangerous shot ended up being from the opponent, at 18 minutes.


The need to win caused anxiety in the red-and-black team, which sometimes rushed into the outcome of plays. Despite having more of the ball and staying more in the attacking field, Fla had difficulty breaking through Vasco's blockade. There were many blocked shots and a free kick hit into the wall that ended with the goalkeeper saving the rebound, at 39 minutes.

SECOND HALF


Flamengo started the second half well. They had a chance after just one minute, with two attempts by number 10 Guilherme Ivo, but the goalkeeper managed to save it. The best chance came in the second minute, when Pedro Henrique crossed and Guilherme Ivo finished again. This time the defense cleared it on the line.

Better for Vasco, who ended up scoring twice, in the 14th minute, from a free kick, and in the 22nd minute. The game continued without any major scoring chances. Flamengo fought hard on the field in an attempt to react, while the opponent tried to pass the time and close in on a counterattack. There were no more important moves until the final whistle.
