Plata hits back at Flamengo fan after party photo leaks online

Gonzalo Plata assured he took his brothers to get to know a bit of Rio de Janeiro

Last Sunday (26), Gonzalo Plata was spotted at a party in Rio de Janeiro. After his photo was leaked online, the Flamengo player questioned and responded to a fan who posted the picture on social media.

What did Plata say?

Brother, seriously? You posting this, like this, without sending us a message? You, it seems, are against Flamengo players, right? My family arrived here in RJ yesterday. My brothers are here. They wanted to go out, wanted to see a bit. Do you think I wouldn’t take them out to get to know the city? You need to be more serious and stop posting things like this out of nowhere, brother.

On the other hand, the Flamengo fan replied to Gonzalo Plata stating that he didn’t know the context of why the player was at the party. Additionally, the supporter emphasized he would publish the striker’s version of the story.

What did the fan reply?

Hey, Plata! I understand your side. The photo came out, none of us fans knew the context (that your family was in RJ) and I think if I messaged you asking, you’d hardly reply. But I’ll post here that you explained yourself. That’s the attitude of a real man! The moment isn’t good at all. This is a decisive week and we just want commitment to qualifying on Wednesday. We’re together!

What happened?

In short, Filipe Luís gave the Flamengo squad a day off on Sunday (26), so the players could spend time with their families. The club believes this time is important for the players’ emotional well-being.

Thus, Plata went out to enjoy Rio de Janeiro’s nightlife on Sunday (26). According to a fan present at the event, the number 15 left the venue around 10 p.m. (Brasília time), after being recognized.

It’s worth remembering that on Saturday (25), Flamengo lost the 30th round of the Brasileirão 1-0 to Fortaleza. Plata, in fact, was criticized for his performance in the match at Arena Castelão, in Ceará.

Additionally, a fan reported on social media that some Flamengo supporters approached Gonzalo Plata during the event on Sunday (26). As a result, Flamengo fans warned that “if the team doesn’t make it to the final (of the Libertadores) he’s screwed.”

What now?

Now, with Plata available, Flamengo will face Racing (ARG) again on Wednesday (29), in the second leg of the Libertadores semifinals. The match will take place from 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time), at Estádio Presidente Perón, known as ‘El Cilindro’, with live broadcast on Rede Globo, on free-to-air TV.
