Gerson’s father blames Maracanã for row with Flamengo fans | OneFootball

Flamengo Fans Expelled Marcão, Gerson's Father, from Maracanã Section

Flamengo's 2-0 victory over Cruzeiro on Wednesday (11th) marked the reunion between Flamengo and the red-black fans. The player's father, Marcão was present at Maracanã and ended up getting involved in a ‘confusion’ with the Nation. Thus, the businessman blamed the stadium's organization for the situation.

In contact with the Coluna do Fla report, Marcão explained that he had no other option but to watch the Flamengo vs. Cruzeiro game at Maracanã+. This is because, Gerson's father lost the box he had at the stadium after not renewing it and did not want to participate in an auction for a new space in the ‘Sacred Temple’.

What Did Marcão Say About His Interaction with Flamengo Fans?

“Many fans talked to me there at Maracanã Mais. I also talked to red-black fans. At first, everything was okay. But out of nowhere, a group started to boo and harass me, trying to attack me. Fortunately, in the end, everything turned out fine, and I left safely,” declared Marcão.

How Was the Reunion Between Gerson, Marcão, and Flamengo?

Gerson experienced a true nightmare during the game between Flamengo and Cruzeiro on Wednesday (11th). After all, the midfielder was booed every time he touched the ball throughout the match. Thus, the red-black fans shouted: “Hey, Gerson, go f*** yourself” and “Ah! You're a mercenary” as a provocation to the midfielder.

Additionally, fans present at Maracanã improvised a chant: “Gerson, mercenary. Take your father and go to hell”. However, the provocation wasn't just with the player. This is because, Marcão, the player's businessman, was even expelled from Maracanã by the red-black fans.

What Is Flamengo's Next Game?

Meanwhile, Flamengo is ‘turning the page’ and starting preparations for the next commitment of the season. This Saturday (14th), Leonardo Jardim's team faces Botafogo at 8:30 PM (Brasília time) at Estádio Nilton Santos, for the sixth round of the Brasileirão.
