Flamengo took the field against Independiente Medellín (COL) this Thursday (07), in the fourth round of the Libertadores. However, the match did not go beyond the 10-minute mark due to protests from the Colombian fans. Amid all this, a post by Jorginho went viral on social media and even turned into a ‘roast’ online.
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, in what looked like 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.
WHAT NOW?
Amid the fans’ joking on social media, it is worth noting that the Flamengo players are safe in Colombia. Due to the match being canceled, there will be no mixed zone or press conference.
Now, the squad is getting ready to travel for its next commitment. Leaving Colombia, Mengão’s squad heads to Porto Alegre, where it will begin preparations for the match against Grêmio in the Brasileirão. The game takes place on Sunday (10) at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time), at the Arena do Grêmio.
