This Monday (20) it was the turn of Flamengo's vice president of Embassies and Consulates, Maurício Gomes de Mattos, to participate in the chat on FlaTV. In the live online broadcast, the leader spoke about important topics and how he recovered from the coronavirus. Check it out:

Embassy and Consulate Numbers

"Currently, Flamengo has 412 embassies and consulates, 25 of which are abroad. Worldwide, I can highlight the matches between Flamengo and Porto, Flamengo and Miami, Flamengo and Paris, Flamengo and Spain/Madrid, and Flamengo and New Jersey. In Brazil, the Flamengo and Campos matches (the largest, with outstanding social work), Flamengo and Friburgo, and Flamengo and Floripa, where president Rodolfo Landim participated in an event attended by a thousand fans. In December of last year, during the Club World Cup in Qatar, we held events at this embassy in both pre-match events, bringing together approximately two thousand Flamengo fans."

Reference in South America

"Today, our project is a benchmark in South America, thanks to the philosophy we implemented, which has been very successful. Our consuls and ambassadors, spread throughout Brazil and abroad, are the ones who make all this happen. This vice-presidency of embassies and consulates didn't exist before, and I want to thank the current administration for creating it, which has further strengthened us."

Next objectives

"Our goal is to reach 5,000 Embassies and Consulates in three or four years. Flamengo can become a global powerhouse, and to achieve this, I'm counting on the support of FlaTV to accompany us in Brazil and around the world, when things return to normal."

Covid-19

"I couldn't help but touch on this very sad topic. I actually had coronavirus and most likely caught COVID-19 during my trip to Spain with President Rodolfo Landim and Vice President of Communications and Marketing Gustavo Oliveira. Upon my return to Brazil, I became very ill during an appointment in Brasília and was hospitalized. The test I took came back positive for the disease. My condition worsened because I had pneumonia while I was hospitalized. Two weeks later, I was discharged, and a day later I returned to Rio and went straight to my home in Angra, where I remain in isolation even though I've recovered. I'm following all government guidelines and only going out for extreme needs. Now is the time to protect our families and our elderly, and hope this passes quickly."
