The great blow of the Copa Libertadores will have repercussions. This Tuesday, Fluminense thrashed River Plate 5-1 at the Maracana, in Group D of the continental competition. This result left the Argentine team relegated to last place with three points.
Likewise, the crushing defeat has unleashed a series of ridicule from both locals and strangers. Fluminense and Felipe Melo did not want to leave the opportunity behind and published a controversial video on the club’s social networks.
“One… two… three… four… five”, was the message of the ‘Flu’. In the images the 39-year-old midfielder can be seen, counting on his fingers from one to five, as a sign of the targets scored against Martín Demichelis’ men.
Let’s remember that Felipe Melo has always declared his support for Boca Juniors, the classic rival of the ‘Millionaires’. “It is a passion that I have since I was little. I have seen many players that I loved who played for Boca. For the mythical Bombonera, for the fans of Boca ”, he mentioned a few years ago.
How will this win sit in the dressing room of the ‘strip’? Will it influence the Argentine superclassic? It is worth mentioning that on Sunday the 7th we will have a new edition of River Plate vs. Boca Juniors.
