Whenever he entered during the games, Carlinhos appeared well in Vasco. This was to help Ribamar’s goal against Ceará and help improve his performance against Goiás. Now, even without official confirmation, the midfielder will start against Fluminense.
Precisely in Maracaná, a stadium in which he never played. On the eve of making a dream come true, the athlete revealed that he had improved physically with the last training sessions and was ready to help the team in this Saturday’s classic.

– I’m very calm. Since I joined Vasco, I have been aware of the responsibility of defending that club. I have been dedicating myself a lot to training and today I am physically better and more in contact with the group. So, I am ready to help Ramón, whether he makes me start or as an option to enter during the game – said the player, to complete:
– Maracanã is a unique stadium. I think it generates a nice and natural anxiety in any player. I always had the dream of playing in Maracanã. In the other passages that I had in clubs in Brazil, I never had the opportunity and, now at Vasco, I think it will happen. We won’t count on the warmth of our fans, but they will certainly send us positive energy. May we save the good time and win this classic with victory.
Vasco’s goal! In the last play of the game, Carlinhos escapes to the left and gives a great pass to Ribamar to close the score.
Even without performing on the traditional stage, Carlinhos has a good memory: he won the gold medal in men’s football in Rio 2016: Brazil won on penalties in Germany.
– The final of the Olympic Games. In the World Cups, unfortunately, Brazil cannot triumph inside the Maracana. And the Olympic gold, being the title that was missing, ended up being even more special to guarantee Maracana that special episode in the stadium’s history – said Vasco.
With 10 points, Vasco is second in the Brazilian’s standings. The team has one game less.
