DECISIVE GAME WAS DOMINATED BY OSASCO

From the start of the match, Sesc Flamengo tried to make it difficult for Osasco to receive the ball with forced serves.

The opponent was able to take better advantage of their offensive chances and closed the first half with a score of 25 to 18.

In the second set, the red-and-black team continued to struggle in attack and saw their opponents dominate most of the time. Osasco, with a good offensive performance, knew how to manage their advantage. The Mais Querido showed signs of a comeback at the end of the set, but could not avoid a 25-21 defeat .

FLAMENGO REACTS IN THE THIRD SET

The third set followed the same pattern, with Sesc Flamengo trying to equalize the action, but having difficulty scoring points at decisive moments. At the end of the set, the team showed a new reaction with good serves from Helena and reduced the difference on the scoreboard. However, errors in defining the points prevented the comeback, and Osasco secured the victory by 25 to 23, sealing the classification.
