The Pride of the Nation plays its first game of the second phase of the League of the Americas (LDA) this Friday (27.02). The match against the Mexican Halcones Rojos takes place in Mar del Plata, Argentina, at 19 pm. At a decisive moment in the competition, all games become finals, as any slip-up could complicate the Rubro-Negro's objective of becoming two-time continental champion.

With a full squad and reinforced by Gegê and Marquinhos, who missed the first round of the LDA, Flamengo arrives in Argentina aiming to qualify for the Final Four in first place. To achieve this, the Pride of the Nation needs to win its first two matches, against Halcones and Trotamundos, to have a more comfortable position in the third and decisive match against the home team, Penãrol.

However, FlaBasquete won't have an easy time. In their first challenge, José Neto's men will face the current leader of the Mexican championship. Next up will be Trotamundos, a Venezuelan team heavily reinforced for the Liga de las Américas. Finally, the Pride of the Nation will face Penãrol, the home team and a strong team in Argentina, always supported by its fans.

The red-black fans can follow all of FlaBasquete's performance in this second phase of the LDA on SporTV, which will broadcast all of the team's games, starting this Friday at 19 pm, on Saturday (28.01) the game will also be at 19 pm, and on Sunday (01.03) at 20:30 pm.
