Highlight of Flamengo against Palmeiras, Arrascaeta had a scare when leaving Maracanã. The number 10 almost got robbed while leaving the stadium. The star was with his family, but nothing serious happened, according to the athlete's own account on social media.
“7 years at Flamengo, first attempted robbery leaving Maracanã. What an unpleasant moment we went through with the family. Thank God we are all fine,” said Arrascaeta, on X, the former Twitter.
It is worth noting that Arrascaeta's wife, Camila Bastiani, is pregnant. However, there is no information on whether the Uruguayan was with her husband when leaving Maracanã. The star's child, whose name has not yet been revealed, is expected to be born on December 21 of this year.
Before the unfortunate moment, Arrascaeta shone on the field in Flamengo's 3-2 victory over Palmeiras. The midfielder scored the first goal after a beautiful pass from Pedro. Later, the scenario reversed, with the number 10 assisting the number 9 for the third goal.
With the duo's show, Arrascaeta reached the top of the Brasileirão scoring chart, with 15 goals, tied with Kaio Jorge from Cruzeiro. Meanwhile, Pedro is third on the list, with 13. It's worth highlighting that the player took a while to debut in the competition after a severe knee injury last year.
After the scare, the Flamengo fans wish Arrascaeta and his family well, and hope the star can be on the field without trauma next Wednesday (22). Thus, the Rubro-Negro faces Racing (ARG) in the Libertadores at Maracanã, at 9:30 PM (Brasília time).
