FAREWELL AT HOME! OLIVINHA WILL BE ABLE TO SAY GOODBYE TO FLAMENGO IN FRONT OF THE FANS AT MARACANÃZINHO

Flamengo drew this Thursday (6) the match against Franca in the series of five of the NBB final. Mais Querido beat their opponent 76 to 68 and will play game 4 at Maracanãzinho, in Rio de Janeiro. This way, Olivinha, the Nation's idol, will be able to say goodbye playing at home.

After debuting at Maracanãzinho, games 2 and 3 were scheduled to be played at Pedrocão, in São Paulo. Depending on the results, the series could end without a return to Rio de Janeiro. Thus, there was a risk of Olivinha retiring far from the Rubro-Negra Nation.

However, last Thursday (6), Mais Querido beat Franca 76 to 68 and tied the series in 1-1, and there is still game 3 in Franca. However, with equality on the scoreboard, there is a need for game 4, which guarantees that Rubro-Negro will decide at home.

OLIVINHA REVEALS THAT THE THOUGHT IS ONLY ON GAME 3

Mais Querido returns to the courts this Saturday (8) and needs to win the match again to bring the advantage to Rio de Janeiro. In this way, Olivinha revealed that the team's head is only focused on game 3.

“Whenever we come from a defeat, the team is able to give a response. That's what happened today. We lost in game 1, here at Pedrocão, we forced game 3, we forced game 4 in Rio. But our minds are on game 3 now. We will come back here tomorrow to sort out the details, to try to get another victory”, says Olivinha.

“One step at a time. Series tied, let's go to game 3, let's go with everything”, said the Mais Querido idol in an interview with Flamengo's official profile.
