After the match against Joinville, which ended with a 91-81 victory for FlaBasquete, coach José Neto spoke exclusively to the official website about the win achieved at the Centreventos Cau Hansen gymnasium. With this result, the "Mais Querido" (Most Beloved) team remains strong in the fight for the NBB10 leadership.
"It was a match with many ups and downs. Joinville took advantage of the bad moments to close the gap on the scoreboard. We had superiority and a way of playing that allowed us to maintain control of the game. We were able to vary the team quite a bit, and that gave us the intensity at the end to win," he said.
Flamengo returns to the court next Thursday (8), facing Caxias do Sul, at 20:05 pm, at the Sesi Gymnasium.
The basketball teams of Clube de Regatas do Flamengo receive funding from their sponsors – thinkseg, Estácio, AmBev, Rede D'or, IRB Brasil RE, CSN, Brasil Plural, and EY – via the Federal Incentive Law/Ministry of Sports (IR) and the State Incentive Law/Rio de Janeiro State Secretariat of Sports, Recreation, and Youth (Seelje), in addition to support from the Brazilian Club Committee (CBC) resulting from the decentralization of resources from the Pelé Law. The Anjo da Guarda Rubro-Negro Project, a personal tax transfer, benefits all Olympic sports of the Most Beloved.
