Samuel Lino: Flamengo match was unforgettable, best of my career | OneFootball

With three assists and two goals, Samuel Lino shone in Flamengo's 8-0 victory over Vitória

Samuel Lino has only played eight games wearing the Flamengo jersey. Despite the short period with the Sacred Mantle, the forward already considers one of these matches as the “best of his career.” In an interview published this Friday (29) by FlamengoTV, the number 16 didn't hesitate: the 8-0 win over Vitória, on Monday (25), will remain forever in memory.

— Actually, it was the first time (I won 8-0), and it was also the first time I was so involved in a game. It was the first time for everything. I think yes (it was the best game of my career). Because there was a lot of involvement in goals. Three assists, two goals, it was a game where I could stand out a lot. I think it was the best game of my career so far — said Samuel Lino.

HOW WAS SAMUEL LINO'S SHOW AGAINST VITÓRIA?

Just one minute into the game, Samuel Lino received from Arrascaeta, dribbled past Vitória's defense, and shot to open the scoring. At 34’, the roles reversed, and the forward set up the Uruguayan to blast the net with his left foot, scoring Flamengo's third.

After the break, just two minutes in, Samuel Lino set up Pedro to score the fourth. At five minutes into the second half, the former Atlético de Madrid (ESP) forward headed in a cross from Varela. Finally, the number 16 participated in the most beautiful goal of the night, passing to Pedro who executed a skillful move to send the ball masterfully into the net.

With Flamengo and Samuel Lino excited by the 8-0 victory, Mengão returns to the field, again at Maracanã. It will be this Sunday (31), against Grêmio, for the 22nd round.
