The jewel of Xerém, Riquelme Felipe, has regained his place in the main team of Fluminense and had his first goal involvement as a professional.
The forward came on in the second half of the 1-0 victory over Juventude in the Brasileirão and provided the assist for Thiago Silva's goal, scored in the final minutes.
After a period with few opportunities under the command of Renato Gaúcho, Riquelme seized the chance given by Zubeldía and celebrated the moment:
“In other matches, I also played well, but today will be memorable for me,” said the young player from Xerém.
With the result, Fluminense reached 41 points, climbed to seventh place, and is now two points away from the G-6.
The team returns to the field on Monday (20) to face Vasco at the Maracanã.
Riquelme, 18 years old, is one of the highlights of the “Squad 07”, a generation considered one of the most promising in the club.
He renewed his contract until August 2030 and is trying to establish himself among the professionals.
