— A clear mistake. The referee was far below the level of the spectacle. That said, it shows the character of the team, the fight. The guy scissored Emerson’s shin (Royal). The other center back, maliciously, went after Bruno Henrique. What are we talking about? It’s something clear, obvious. In Bruno Henrique’s play, I’m not even asking for a straight red card, but rather a second yellow, clear and obvious -, he said, before concluding:

— Anyone would have given that card. Great match, incredible atmosphere, Libertadores, and we have to talk about refereeing because the referee didn’t have the courage to apply the punishment. When something so clear happens, we are going beyond the limits of sport. This kind of play cannot go by without the correct decision -, concluded Danilo.
