After a victory for each side in the first phase, Flamengo and Bolívar (BOL) meet again in the round of 16 of the Libertadores. The teams will duel on the 15th of August, at Maracanã, and the 22nd of the same month, at the altitude of La Paz. For the Bolivian team's top scorer in the competition, Chico da Costa, the fact that the second match will be at 3,640 meters above sea level from the sea is the great asset for qualifying for the quarterfinals.
“Deciding the game at home is always a differentiator in any competition. Much more to the influence that we have geographically within the competition, where we know how difficult it is to play at altitude. More than ever, Bolívar today is prepared to take advantage of these conditions. So it was an objective to classify. As things unfolded, we felt we could qualify first and we made a huge effort to be able to decide at home in the round of 16,” said Chico.
In Group E of the Libertadores, Bolívar won in La Paz, 2-1. At the time, coach Tite opted for a mixed team, without many starters. However, at Maracanã, the 'complete' Flamengo thrashed 4-0. When asked about a possible rematch in the round of 16 duel, Chico da Costa made no secret of the fact that the clash will have a “different flavor”.
“For me there isn’t one, it didn’t get choked up, there’s no rematch, just a different motivation. I think Bolívar and Flamengo is not a rivalry, but it will have a different flavor, yes, it will have a different context and I am sure we will be better prepared,” he added.
Due to his good performance in the Libertadores, Chico da Costa has attracted the attention of other clubs. Recently, Grêmio investigated the player's situation. Furthermore, this Tuesday (25), the Paraguayan press reported that Cerro Porteño (PAR) is negotiating with the athlete. Therefore, if sold, the scorer of five goals in the Libertadores (tied with Pedro, from Flamengo) will be absent in the knockout stage.
