In a press conference, Abel Ferreira was talking about the possibilities of the São Paulo team fighting for titles in 2024. So, he ended up giving an opinion about his opponents and Flamengo would enter this context . There is a huge expectation in Mais Querido for this season. After not winning any title last year, this tone has already shown itself to be different, as the team has already won the Guanabara Cup.

“It was a resounding victory (at Paulistão) and proof that we are better than our adversary. But with other opponents the story is different. It's not just Palmeiras that is a candidate for titles, there are teams that didn't win anything last year and invested a lot. We have to be prepared, because all the teams that play against us come with maximum strength and we have to prepare ourselves”, he said.


This is the case of Rubro-Negro from Rio de Janeiro. This is because, totaling the three reinforcements that arrived, the Flamengo board spent R$158.1 million and there is still the possibility that more names will arrive during the year. De la Cruz arrived for R$77.7 million, Matías Viña for R$42.8 million, and the most recent, Léo Ortiz, with the Club disbursing R$37.6 million.


Many on social media interpreted Abel's speech as directed at red and black people. The two teams have created a very strong rivalry in recent years, as they have been the strongest teams for a few seasons now. Mais Querido ended up getting the worst of some decisive games, as they lost the finals of the 2021 Libertadores and the 2023 Brazilian Super Cup to Palmeiras. However, they won, on penalties, in the match of the same national competition, in the 2021 edition.

After a goalless draw with Fluminense, Mengão is classified for the decision of the Campeonato Carioca and could be champion again once. The decision will be divided into two matches, on March 31st and April 7th. The rival will be decided this Sunday (17), in the game between Vasco and Nova Iguaçu.
