Filipe Luís: Internacional need a perfect game in Libertadores decider | OneFootball

Flamengo to Face Internacional for the Third Consecutive Time

The Flamengo won against the Internacional by 3-1, in Porto Alegre, on Sunday (17), and remains the leader of the Brazilian Championship. After the match, coach Filipe Luís praised the Gaúcho squad and projected the second game of the Copa Libertadores, which will also be held at the Estádio Beira-Rio.

— We had some information that came out in the press that Roger Machado might choose not to play the main players, but I think five or six players who played today were starters at some point this season. Their attack is very dangerous. I played with Borré, I know the quality he has —, Filipe Luís began.

— Valência is a guy who already scored a goal against us last year. Vitinho himself is an imposing player in one-on-one situations. He created dangerous chances. What I see from the game is that it's possible to see Roger's model very well rooted, regardless of the players who play. We wanted to come here and win, we'll think the same way on Wednesday (20). We have to play a perfect game to win again —, he concluded.

HOW IS THE CONFRONTATION?

The Flamengo won against the Internacional last Wednesday (13) by 1-0, with a goal from Bruno Henrique, at the Maracanã.
