“When I enter the field, I hear nothing. I am myself. I talk a lot with my father and friends of mine and at first, it was difficult.

“I said that I didn’t know if I would be able to turn the page and play quietly. But in training I have already felt it and in my head, I am calm.

“I remember what happened, of course, but under pressure I’m calm. People can talk, criticise, say that I’m feeling the burden, but I’m calm and I know I have to continue this way to reverse everything.”

Andreas and Flamengo will face São Paulo this Sunday.
