“It’s the day that everyone has been waiting for, that we’ve been waiting for all year. I think the main thing is to control our anxiety, to control all this feeling of wanting to win, of wanting to make history, and turn that into motivation so that we can play a great match. Pursue our dream,” Hugo Souza told “CorinthiansTV”.
“We are very motivated. We really want it, we want to make history and give this joy to our supporters. That’s what we will look for until the end. The most important thing is to know how to control our anxiety, to play our football, and everything will be fine,” he added.
Hugo Souza was decisive as Corinthians qualified for the big decider. In the semi-final, he received two penalties in the match against Cruzeiro.
