Flamengo claimed their fourth Copa Libertadores title by defeating Palmeiras 1-0, with Danilo scoring the decisive goal. Following the match, manager Felipe Luiz highlighted the memory of the 'boys from Ninho,' the young players who lost their lives in the 2019 fire at Flamengo's training facility, as a source of inspiration for the team's recent successes.

Luiz expressed solidarity with the victims' families and acknowledged the sacrifices made by the team to achieve this victory. He also reflected on the challenges faced by both teams and the emotional significance of the win, noting the lasting impact of the 2019 tragedy on the club.

Flamengo manager dedicates win to victims of 2019 tragedy

Flamengo just won their fourth Copa Libertadores title, beating Palmeiras 1-0 with Danilo's header. But manager Felipe Luiz had something bigger on his mind than the trophy itself. I wanted to start by saying what I always say after such a special achievement, which is about the boys from Ninho who passed away in 2019. It's no coincidence that Flamengo started winning so many titles, having so many successes after they passed away. Of course there were other things, but I believe in that strength. I know those boys are with me. I spoke to the father of Bernardo, Pissetta, one of the boys who died. He always sends me messages. I feel those boys are still alive within the club and within me. I would like to send a hug to their families. This is a very special momento for me. It means a lot to me, and my wife knows it. There have been many hours, many, many hours. At the end of the day, coach is judged by his results. Because we won, I'm a phenomenon, and Abel, Ferreira, is worthless. But we both know that we have built strong and solid teams with an identity. Both teams are very strong and solid and it's difficult because at the end of the day, one of us had to win and one of us had to lose. It has been very difficult to reach this far, so difficult. There were many individual and collective sacrifices, but we did it. We achieved our objective. I'm still processing it all. There was a lot of tension this week. But if you ask me if this is what I expected, then, yeah, this is what I expected. The Ninho do Urubu fire in February 2019 killed 10 young players aged 14 to 16 when flames tore through their dormitory at Flamengo's training facility. It remains one of Brazilian football's darkest tragedies.
