"This game against Rio Claro is very important for Flamengo because, with the Super 8 coming up, the last games of the first round become decisive. The top five in the standings are very close, with only one loss separating them, so any win could keep us in the lead and any loss could drop us to fifth place. Furthermore, we would even lose home advantage in the Super 8. So we're approaching this Rio Claro game, and the next two in the NBB, very seriously to maintain our hold on first place," declares Gustavo.
