Fernando Diniz’s team will face Internacional, in Beira-Rio

Seeking a place in the Libertadores final, Fluminense takes to the field at Beira-Rio to face Internacional who need a simple victory to advance to the stage. Fernando Diniz’s team dreams of an unprecedented title for the Tricolore.
Even though he is deciding on a spot in the big decider away from home against Colorado, the Throw away! highlights five reasons why fans should continue to believe in the Guerreiros team’s ranking. Due to the draw in the first match, the winner of the second leg will get a direct place in the decider. In the event of a new tie, the finalist will be defined on penalties.
FIVE REASONS TO TRUST THE FLUMINENSE CLASSIFICATION:
EXPERIENCE – In addition to having a team with a lot of experience, Fluminense can count on athletes like Felipe Melo and Ganso, who have already won the Libertadores. Fábio also reached the final of the competition in 2009, while Marcelo won the Champions League five times with the Real Madrid shirt and should not feel the weight of the match.
GUNNER – Fluminense has Germán Cano, who has already scored 11 goals in 10 games played in the current edition of the Libertadores.
VERY BAD PERFORMANCE FROM THE RIVAL – Under the leadership of Eduardo Coudet, Internacional played seven matches in Beira-Rio, achieving three wins, one draw and three defeats. With a performance below 50%, Colorado shows no confidence in playing in front of its fans, which could be an advantage for Fluminense.
REWRITE HISTORY – Tricolore’s victory over Olimpia was the first time that Fluminense advanced to the next stage in a knockout phase of the Libertadores away from home. The team led by Fernando Diniz hopes to continue writing and achieve the feat for the second time in the club’s history.
SUPERSTITION – In the first match of the Carioca Championship final, Samuel Xavier was sent off in the defeat against Flamengo and was replaced by Guga in the decisive clash. On that occasion, Tricolor defeated Rubro-Negro. Once again the starting right back received a red card in a knockout duel and the number 23 will start in another key match of the season.
