Find your path with the Football Manager course! Before the ball rolled, the Botafoguenos present at Maracanã confirmed their support by shouting “ah, it’s Lúcio Flávio!”. And once the ball started rolling, it didn't take long for the qualities of a coach to come into play. The former player, armed with a piece of paper, wrote down his impression of Botafogo's attitude. He looked at the field and gestured to the athletes. + Lion of the island!

We have to make them understand that one depends on the other – he stated at the press conference. Lúcio Flávio and Carli: perfect “harmony” (Photo: Vitor Silva/Botafogo) Another peculiarity took over. Elevated to assistant at the team's request, Joel Carli left the bench and spoke to the interim coach. They exchanged ideas and the former defender returned to the bench. The coach closely followed the attacks of the self-imposed black and white team in the initial stage. The team controlled the action, put pressure on the opponent's ball and used speed to attack. This time Eduardo was closer to the attack and managed to get more involved. Until Tchê Tchê's move left Júnior Santos free to score when Fábio left. Lúcio Flávio celebrated in an encouraging way, but without ceasing to worry about what he saw on the field. A minute later, Júnior Santos opened the way and Tiquinho Soares was free to score another goal. Lúcio Flávio raised his arms to the sky and soon found himself in the embrace of goalkeeper Lucas Perri. While waiting to check a possible offside goal, a strange situation happened: the coach quickly grabbed a clipboard and instructed the players who were close to the bench. Meanwhile, Joel Carli, from the technical area, provided guidance. -Carli was here with them for a few months, she knows the dressing room very well. It's great to be close to the players who are there, to lift their spirits, so they can perform at their best after being appointed - guaranteed the coach. When the goal was confirmed, Lúcio Flávio finally received hugs. After an exemplary first half, the black and white team opted for caution. And at that moment another factor that was missing in the last matches came into play: defensive strength. Apart from John Kennedy's shot against the post and Léo Fernández's shot at Lucas Perri, Botafogo was never seriously threatened. Adryelson and Victor Cuesta remained in tune. On the flanks, Di Plácido was very involved in the attack and both the Argentine and Marçal contained the progression of Keno and Arias. Due to the heat of the game, Lúcio Flávio expressed his variation to keep the game under Black's control. One of the players sent off was Júnior Santos, the team's standout player in the match. - Upon leaving, he thanked him for conveying his trust and giving him this opportunity. I said he helped a lot at Botafogo. He is a player with a lot of potential, the special quality of being a great starter and loved by the team - declared the coach. The exchanges made Alvinegro show pride, guaranteeing the victory. At the end of the match, the group welcomed the “new” coach and the fans honored him as a player: “ah, it’s Lúcio Flávio!” Lúcio Flávio saw the vision of someone who was used to experiencing the Botafogo team. -Lúcio (Flávio) has a perception of our team that is very similar to the perception of Luís Castro, (Cláudio) Caçapa when he was here with us. I think he was trying to save him. I think Lúcio tried to save - said Lucas Perri in the Maracanã mixed area. Midfielder Tchê Tchê also expressed his joy for the new coach. - He was here with us. Important figure both in the shirt and in his coaching role. We are happy for him. We hugged him because we were told he would become our commander. We are a very united and very humble family. There are main characters, but each is similar in strength to the other. This is the most important thing – he said. Botafogo returns to action on Wednesday, the 18th, against América-MG, at Independência. FIFA data gives more time to strengthen family ties. Follow Lance!
