The Mais Querido idol sent a message to the Nation through social media
|
Last Saturday night (8), Flamengo lost again to Franca, in game 3 of the series of five in the NBB final by a score of 81 to 73. Therefore, in order to continue in the fight for the title, the Mais Querido will have to win game 4 next Thursday (13). Thus, Olivinha, idol of the Pride of the Nation, sent a message to the fans.
On her social networks, Olivinha made an appeal to the Flamengo fans: “We fought the whole championship to, precisely, reach this stage and be able to DECIDE the championship TO THE SIDE OF OUR FANS. The time has come NATION. Thursday (13) is a decision for us. Let's go together”, said the number 16.
FLAMENGO NEEDS TO WIN GAME 4It is worth highlighting that Flamengo needs to win game 4 to be able to dream of the title. So far, the series has only had three matches, of which Franca won two and Mais Querido one. Thus, Rubro-Negro is forced to triumph in the fourth match.
If Flamengo wins, it will force the fifth and final game of the NBB final series. Therefore, the match, if necessary, will take place on Saturday (15), also at Maracanãzinho, in Rio de Janeiro.
FAREWELL OF OLIVINHAIt is possible that game 4 will score Olivinha’s farewell to the courts. This is because the Mais Querido idol announced that he will retire at the end of the season. With this, the fans live with the expectation that number 16 will end his 12-year cycle at Rubro-Negro with a title.
