Do not miss a detail of the match Flamengo vs Vélez Sarsfield updates and commentaries here on VAVEL.
Speak up, Dorival Junior!
“Maybe so (his mistake on the scale), but I have a question: I already have it; we had a disqualification at home... with Cabañas. Won 4 to 2 lá and lost 3-0 here. In football, nothing é impossible. I would never forgive myself, after a hard-won advantage. After what Flamengo did, some people preferred to say that Vélez shouldn't be in the semifinals. É criminal with the microphone in his hands say that. The team deserves all respect and consideration. Flamengo fans would never forgive me if on Wednesday the advantage came to drop, for one reason or another, without the main team on the field. I work with my feet on the ground. I know what we're going to face on Wednesday again",' he highlighted.
“There has to be respect. He é one of the most hardworking, dedicated, committed and committed. A professional like that may not be in the best moment, but it's still important. When you lose a player from that working group, you pay a very high price. People don't understand. Do you think that the é only inside the field, and not always é so. Some, in addition to the technical answer, give an immeasurable answer. Diego é one of them. As long as he is at Flamengo, Diego will be respected", said the Flamengo coach.
