"It will be a difficult game, because Barueri will play without any responsibility and that is a reason to be very alert. It's a very well-trained team, tall and that plays with a lot of speed, when they have the pass in their hands. We have to impose our serve and put pressure on them in our counterattack. We know that the responsibility is all ours. We fought hard to finish the qualifying phase first and we can't go in with our guard down, especially at their home", analyzed central Valquíria, the third best striker in the Superliga, with 54% efficiency.

"We went through a moment of instability, but we rolled up our sleeves. Teamwork prevails here. We came together and came out more united after two consecutive defeats, for Osasco and Praia Clube, and we adjusted what was necessary. As a result, we played a great game against Minas and achieved a good run to finish the first phase well and start the playoffs", added Valquíria.

Philadelphia 76ers star center Joel Embiid, MVP of the 2022/23 NBA season, once again demonstrated his affection for Flamengo . Last Thursday (21), the Cameroonian player was spotted in an official club store, in Cabo Frio (RJ) , where he made a point of purchasing several red-black products.
Although unusual, Embiid's presence in the Lakes Region has a reason. Married to Brazilian model Anne de Paula, the athlete often visits the city, where his father-in-law lives, during the holidays. This time, he took the opportunity to explore the "Nação Rubro-Negra" store and expand his Flamengo memorabilia collection.
The star's arrival took everyone by surprise and caused great excitement among the employees. Salesman Kauan said he was so nervous when he met the player that he forgot to remove the alarm from a piece of furniture, creating an unusual moment: " His father-in-law even joked with me afterward. It was an unforgettable experience ," he revealed.
Embiid didn't hold back. He brought jerseys for himself, his wife, his father-in-law, and his son , as well as accessories like shorts and thermoses. The visit even helped meet the store's sales goals. The center also obliged some fans and store owners by agreeing to take photos with them.
Embiid's connection with Flamengo isn't new. In 2023, during an interview with the NBA Freestyle program, he revealed that he started supporting Flamengo because of his wife's family: " Actually, I'm a Flamengo fan because my girlfriend's father is a fan . Since we started dating, I've been following the team," he said.
In January 2024, when Flamengo held a preseason training camp in Philadelphia, Embiid met Léo Pereira and Matheus Gonçalves . The defender even posted a photo with the star: " Nice to meet you, brother ." Thus, the relationship between Joel Embiid and Flamengo continues to grow, uniting basketball and soccer in a connection that already transcends borders.
