Considered one of the biggest idols of recent history of Flamengo, Diego Ribas created his ideal player and included iconic characters from Atlético and Cruzeiro.

Already with the ability with his right leg, the former Rubro-Negro point guard chose Ronaldinho Gaúcho, who marked his season with the Galo shirt. If he were left-handed, Diego responded that he would like to have the ability of Alex, Triple Crown champion with Cruzeiro in 2003. Regarding intelligence, Ribas chose Zidane, Real Madrid's idol, as the great reference.

In relation to physical strength, Adriano, another Flamengo idol, was the player named by Diego in the joke. With reference to the pass, midfielder Toni Kroos, from Real Madrid, was chosen. In terms of finishing, Lionel Messi, from Inter Miami, is the player with the best finishing, according to Diego Ribas. Regarding technique, Brazilian Neymar, from Al-Hilal, was the ideal player in the opinion of the former Flamengo player.

In more than two decades as a professional athlete, Diego Ribas won titles in Brazil and Europe, in addition to triumphs for the Brazilian team, such as winning two Copa América, in 2004 and 2007, and bronze at the Beijing Olympic Games, in 2008.

Before Tite arrived Flamengo there was speculation that the coach would have some kind of fight with Gabigol. However, the possibility of fights between the two is completely buried. This is because the number 10 and the commander are closer than ever, having an important conversation so that this could become real.

According to information from journalist Pedro Ivo, from ESPN, there was an honest dialogue between Gabigol and Tite after the attacker's return to the pitch. Pressured in his position, the coach was going through difficult times at Mais Querido, and with the return of number 10, the coach said he needed the player. Now, support is slowly returning.


On the other hand, Gabigol also expressed gratitude for the visit he received from Tite while he was suspended, and therefore responded: “And I needed to repay you. You count on me a lot, you went to my house when I was suspended.”

PEDRO'S REPLACEMENT IN THE THROW OVER BOLÍVAR PROVIDES LIGHT CLIMATE

This way, it's not just journalists who speak that the atmosphere at Ninho do Urubu is light, but the players' expressions demonstrate this. An example, in replacing Pedro for Gabigol's entry in the Mais Querido this Wednesday (15), the number 9 came out with a smile on his face and hugged Gabi, who was also smiling.

FOCUS ON THE NEXT MATCH

Thus, with the atmosphere at Ninho do Urubu super light and calmer, Flamengo will only return to the field next Wednesday (22), to face Amazonas, for third phase of the Copa do Brasil, at Arena Amazônia, in Manaus. The game promises to be well played and with a large audience.
