Barbecue in the dressing room? Flamengo joke after Libertadores call-off | OneFootball

Photo of Flamengo players in the locker room becomes a meme online

Flamengo took the field against Independiente Medellín (COL) this Thursday (07), in the fourth round of the Libertadores. However, the match did not get past the 10-minute mark due to protests from the Colombian fans. In the middle of it all, a post by Jorginho went viral on social media and even became meme material online.

What was Jorginho’s post?

Aiming to reassure fans and family members, Jorginho posted a photo alongside other Flamengo players in the locker room at Atanasio Girardot Stadium. That’s because, in the stands, the scene was one of tension, with fans setting fires and throwing explosives, amid an imminent clash with the police.

In Jorginho’s photo, however, the players appeared in a safe setting and looked calm. As a result, Flamengo fans did not miss the chance to joke about the situation.

Amid the fans’ jokes on social media, it is worth noting that the Flamengo players are safe in Colombia. Due to the cancellation of the match, there will be no mixed zone and no press conference.

Now, the squad is getting ready to travel for its next commitment. Leaving Colombia, the Mengão squad will head to Porto Alegre, where it will begin preparations for the match against Grêmio in the Brasileirão. The match will take place on Sunday (10), at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time), at Arena do Grêmio.
