Hard game
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’s going to be a difficult game because Barueri will play without any responsibility and that’s a reason to be very alert. It’s a very well-trained team, tall and plays with a lot of speed when they have the pass in hand. 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 in first place and we cannot go in with our guard down, especially at their home”, analyzed central Valquíria, third best striker in the Superliga, with 54% efficiency.
Four wins in a row
The player celebrates the resumption of consistency for Sesc RJ Flamengo, which has 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 group.
“We went through a moment of instability, but we rolled up our sleeves. Teamwork prevails here. We came together and emerged more united after two consecutive defeats, to Osasco and Praia Clube, and adjusted what was necessary. With that, 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.
