INFO:
Obina was a center forward with an imposing physique, known for his strength, constant presence in the area and powerful finishing, despite having technical limitations and relative mobility. He played like a typical "number 9", fighting with the defenders, taking advantage of the rebounds, always with great drive and determination. Even though he was not a refined player, he won over the Flamengo fans with his charisma, humility and decisive goals, especially in classics and important moments. His relationship with the red-and-blacks was marked by devotion and irreverence, immortalized in chants such as "Obina is better than Eto'o", transforming him into a folk idol and symbol of popular identification, far beyond the numbers on the field.
