Flamengo returns to the pitch this Saturday (07) to face Corinthians at the Neo Química Arena, in a match valid for the 26th round of the Brazilian Championship. With the expectation of starting the match, Léo Pereira is aware that the São Paulo team, playing at home, will probably adopt an offensive stance against Rubro-Negro. However, the defender assures that the Rio team will not give up its own style of play.


— We know that they are coming from a negative result, so, playing at home, I believe they will come forward, but We have to keep our feet on the ground and play our game, which is a game of imposition all the time. We hope for the three points, impose ourselves from the beginning of the game and achieve this victory -, guaranteed Léo Pereira, in an interview with FlaTV.


Léo Pereira, scorer of the goal that guaranteed Flamengo's victory over Corinthians in the first round of the Brazilian Championship, praised the preparation of the red and black team throughout this week at Ninho do Urubu. According to the defender, interim Mário Jorge managed to identify the points that the Rio team needed to improve during the training sessions that preceded this Saturday's clash (07).


— It was certainly a week of a lot of work, a lot of delivery, where we were able to adjust some things that were hurting us in other matches. I believe that Mário (Jorge) managed to make the points that we needed to improve very clear - he said, before continuing.

— We arrived very prepared for this game against Corinthians, which in the first round I was very happy at the end, I was able to give the team this victory. So, let's go with the same commitment, with the same dedication, and, if God wants to pursue these three points -, he concluded.
