ESPN Commentator 'Guarantees' Fluminense as Libertadores Champion
ESPN commentator Antero Greco expressed great confidence in Fluminense, 'guaranteeing' the team as future Libertadores champions after their victory over Santa Fe. On his official Twitter account, Greco posted: 'Mark my words: Fluminense will be champions! It is written in the stars, with Nelson Rodrigues' signature,' referring to the famous writer and club supporter. Despite being considered an 'underdog' by many, Fluminense currently leads its group in the competition with eight points, two points ahead of River Plate. The Rio de Janeiro team only needs a simple draw against Junior Barranquilla in a match to be played at Maracanã next Tuesday to secure their spot in the tournament's round of 16, reinforcing Antero Greco's belief in the club's potential.
