Daronco gets Fluminense v Palmeiras, Tricolor wary after row | OneFootball

Anderson Daronco will be the referee for Fluminense vs. Palmeiras this Saturday at 4:30 p.m. at the Maracanã, for the 23rd round of the Brazilian Championship. The referee from Rio Grande do Sul had not officiated a Tricolor match since 2024, when he was in charge of the derby against Vasco that was marked by controversy involving Vegetti’s handball goal.On that occasion, Vasco won 2-0, and the first goal, scored by Vegetti, took about seven minutes to be validated. Daronco was called by VAR to review the play and decided to confirm the goal, despite complaints from Fluminense’s players and coaching staff. Later, the CBF released the review audio, while the VAR analysis stated that there was no definitive image proving the handball.Now, two years later, Daronco meets Fluminense again in an important clash against Palmeiras. The appointment was announced by the CBF this week.Officiating crew– Referee: Anderson Daronco (RS)– Assistant 1: Rafael da Silva Alves (RS)– Assistant 2: Michael Stanislau (RS)– Fourth official: Gustavo Ervino Bauermann (SC)– VAR: Wagner Reway (SC)
