The lack of regularity of the OB throughout the competition ended up defining its future. The team will compete in the downhill octagonal and it is logical that this was not what they wanted. However, you will have to face reality and focus on improving in the coming games. From now on, he will have to treat his matches as finals, so he has to do his best on the pitch. By playing well and minimizing mistakes, you will have a better chance of positive results.
In this phase there are still two games left and as difficult as they are, you can still improve your score. In this round, the ideal is to show a more defensive posture, since not suffering goals will guarantee at least a draw. However, if you know how to take advantage of counterattacks and stopped balls, it may surprise you. In summary, the OB needs its performances better and if it shows security in this confrontation it will be able to surprise the local team.
