Curopos praised Zuccarello and Ramon Rique as standout players in the team, and Andrey as a potential future Brazilian international.

Curopos is confident that the current sub-20 players, particularly those who have been regular starters, have the potential to play in the professional team. The Vasco da Gama sub-20 team has achieved an historic title, and Curopos' own career path has been marked by success in youth development.
