FlaBasquete continues preparing for another important stage of the South American League. On November 7th, 8th, and 9th, the Pride of the Nation will battle for a spot in the final stage of the competition at Tijuca Tênis Clube against Olímpia (PAR), Pinheiros, and Estudiantes (ARG). Already thinking about the matchups, power forward Olivinha spoke to the official website about the expectations and urged fans to pack the gym.
"Expectations for these games are the best possible. We fought hard to finish first in the previous stage to play at home in this stage. The board made a huge effort to bring these matches to Rio de Janeiro and we are very happy with this support," explained the number 16.
A decisive factor in several challenges over the past few years, the red-and-black fans were once again called upon to support the "Mais Querido" (Most Beloved). According to Olivinha, this support is crucial for all the players.
"Now we're counting on the nation to fill the Tijuca Tennis Club and turn the gym into a cauldron for us to do our job well. We want to leave with these three wins and qualification in hand with a show from our fans. When they're on our side, it's always better to play, and they know they're crucial to us. I invite them to fill the Tijuca Tennis Club to support us and let's fight for that spot together," declared Olivinha.
The Red-Black Nation makes a difference and is an important part of the journey to national pride. Secure your ticket now and come to Tijuca Tênis Clube to support FlaBasquete on November 7th, 8th, and 9th in the South American League.
