Gabigol shares cryptic post before Flamengo v Cruzeiro clash | OneFootball

Gabigol will face Flamengo for the first time at Maracanã

After making history at Flamengo, the time for a reunion has come. For the first time since leaving the club, Gabigol will face the Most Beloved at Maracanã. Before the match, the striker made a post on social media that left the Nation and also Cruzeiro fans curious.

Gabigol posted a photo of a soccer boot. In the image, it’s not clear whether it will be used this Thursday (02), starting at 8:30 pm (Brasília time), for the 26th round of the Brasileirão. On the boot, there is a heart: half red, half blue. For many fans, the image means that the striker is still 50% Flamengo and has the other half committed to Cruzeiro.

However, some understood that the boot with blue and pink colors means that Gabigol is going to be a father. Currently 29 years old, Gabriel is dating Rafaella Santos, Neymar’s sister, from Santos. Now, there is anticipation to see what the former red-black is preparing for tonight’s game.

WHAT WERE THE FANS’ REACTIONS TO GABIGOL’S POST?

“Is it Flamengo and Cruzeiro or is it a baby?” asked one fan. “I thought ‘Flamengo and Cruzeiro.’ You guys thought ‘girl or boy’,” joked another. “He said he was going to pay tribute to Flamengo. That’s why the colors are from Fla and Cru,” explained another internet user.

IS GABIGOL PLAYING AGAINST FLAMENGO?

Despite the great anticipation for Gabigol’s reunion with Flamengo at Maracanã, the striker is expected to start this Thursday’s (02) match on the bench. After all, Kaio Jorge, the top scorer of the competition, holds the position in Leonardo Jardim’s team.

Therefore, with the mysterious Gabigol on the bench, Flamengo and Cruzeiro face off starting at 8:30 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã. The Most Beloved leads the competition with 54 points, while the team from Minas Gerais is in third place, with 50, but with one more game played.
