The Flamengo basketball team takes to the court next Thursday (19.12/18), at 15:XNUMX pm, at the Vô Lucato Gymnasium, in São Paulo, against Limeira. The match is valid for the eleventh round of the qualifying phase of the New Basketball Brazil (NBB). Coach José Neto guarantees that the Most Beloved is focused on the challenge.

"We're going to face a team that, based on its campaign, has shown itself to be a title contender. They're fighting for the same goals as us, but we're very focused and we're going after the win," he declared.

Against a strong opponent, the isolated leader and the only undefeated team in the NBB, Flamengo is looking for a consistent performance.

"Just like defeats, victories are also a thing of the past. We must always focus on the next game, which is always the most important. We must learn from both positive and negative results to continually evolve as a team," he said.

Rubro-Negro's last match this year will be away from home, against Bauru, on the 21st. The team will return to Rio de Janeiro in the following game, on January 07th, against Macaé, at the Gávea social headquarters.
