A new competition begins for Sesc RJ Flamengo this Wednesday (27.03). Leader of the qualifying phase of the Women's Super League, coach Bernardinho's team faces Barueri, at 6:30 pm, away from home, in the first match of the best-of-three quarter-final series. SporTV2 broadcasts live.
The red and black team knows the dangers of their opponent, who gave them trouble in the quarterfinals of the Copa Brasil and in the first round of the Superliga. Therefore, they want to impose an aggressive pace to return to Rio de Janeiro with the advantage in the confrontation.
"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.
The player celebrates her return the consistency of Sesc RJ Flamengo, which comes from four consecutive victories in the competition and arrives with morale in search of another positive result. She remembers that the difference lies in the strength of the team.
"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.
The second match of the quarterfinals between Sesc RJ Flamengo and Barueri will be played on Saturday (30.03), at 7pm, at Tijuca Tênis Clube. If necessary, game 3 will take place on April 3, at 6 pm, at Maracanãzinho.
Sesc RJ Flamengo is the biggest champion of the Women's Superliga, with 12 cups. Under Bernardinho's command, the team reached the top of the podium in the national competition in the 1997/1998 and 1999/2000 seasons (both in Curitiba), 2005/2006, 2006/2007, 2007/2008, 2008/2009, 2010/2011 , 2012/2013, 2013/2014, 2014/2015, 2015/2016 and 2016/2017 (in Rio de Janeiro).

Sesc Flamengo continues to restructure, with new players arriving and leaving. As such, Mais Querido has signed Simone Lee, a 28-year-old American who played last season for Megabox Vallefoglia-ITA.
WHO IS SIMONE LEE?
Simone Lee 's signing has been rumored for some time. The athlete is 1.88m tall and also has a German volleyball background, enjoying the peak of her career last season. She was voted the best attacker in the 2023/24 Turkish Championship.
Throughout her career, Simone has won two German Championships, one Italian Championship, one German Cup and one Nations League for the United States. She was discovered by Pennsylvania State University and went to Europe in the 2017/18 season.
SIMONE'S HUSBAND CAN STRENGTHEN THE FLABASQUETE
According to information from the "Garrafão Rubro-Negro" portal, Simone's husband, German winger Lukas Wank , may join Flabasquete. Lukas will come to accompany his wife, but will need to find a new club after leaving Germany.
Last season, Lukas played for the Wurzburg Baskets, playing in 13 games and averaging 2.3 points, 0.6 assists and 1.3 rebounds. Previously, he played for Oldenburg, Skyliners Frankfurt, Lowen Braunschweig, Niners Chemnitz, RheinStars Köln and Science City Jena.

Bap reveals Flamengo's financial situation left by Landim's management - check it out
The president of Mais Querido opened up about the moment the club was in after the departure of the former management at the beginning of the year

Luiz Eduardo Baptista took over as president of Flamengo in January, after winning the red-black elections at the end of 2024. Thus, the leader of Mais Querido gave a quick interview to the press present in the United States and exposed the financial reality that the club found after the end of Rodolfo Landim's management.
Flamengo had money for two days, so Flamengo had a good economic situation, but a bad financial situation", highlighted Bap.
He continued: "If Flamengo were a company earning R$1.5 billion per year, it would have to have around R$300, R$400 million in cash. That's how you run a company. No one runs a large company with less than 3, 4 months of cash in hand. Like that guy who has furniture, furnishings, but no money in the bank. He had no liquidity," revealed Bap.
INCREASE IN DEBT IN 2024
It is worth remembering that Flamengo released the annual report with the audited financial statements for the 2024 fiscal year. The balance sheet even showed record revenue of R$1.3 billion, but also indicated a 581% increase in net operating debt, which went from R$48 million to R$327 million, and a deficit of R$734 thousand.
SOLUTIONS TO SAVE MONEY
Finding itself in a delicate financial situation, Flamengo 's focus at the beginning of the year was to increase its cash flow. Thus, with the non-renewal of David Luiz and Gabigol's contracts, the Rubro-Negro made room in the monthly payroll. In addition, the Rubro-Negro agreed to sell Fabrício Bruno to Cruzeiro for R$44 million.
FOCUS ON SEASON SEQUENCE
So, while Bap continues trying to recover Flamengo financially, the red-black squad focuses on the next commitment in the Club World Cup. Rubro-Negro returns to the field this Tuesday (24), at 10 pm (Brasília time), for the match against Los Angeles FC.
