00:00This was an epic victory. Probably the most epic victory of a Libertadores final.
00:08It's a huge feat for us. We knew the responsibility we had.
00:14We knew from the first minute what our chances of winning this trophy were.
00:19We always believed, even with less than one man,
00:22that as a coach I only have to surrender to all these athletes.
00:26I only have to surrender to the human quality, the football quality of each one of them.
00:34Because today they were authentic competition animals.
00:37Only a team like this, with this spirit, with this desire, can achieve such a feat.
00:42I am very, very happy to have won a trophy of this size for Botafogo.
00:49I am very happy for my players because they deserved it.
00:52It's a huge honor, from Aurora, that they have this goal.
00:57Today they were fair and deserved winners of a trophy of this size.
01:02And obviously, also a very special word for our fans,
01:05because they deserve what we did for them today.
01:08It is for them that we also fight. They are an inexhaustible source of energy.
01:12And therefore, we are very happy for them too,
01:15to be able to contribute and give joy to those who have suffered so much in recent years.
