Red card shout: M. Pereira’s tackle on Flu sparks debate, watch 🎥 | OneFootball

The end of the first half of the match between Cruzeiro and Fluminense featured a refereeing controversy at the Mineirão.

The Tricolor went into the break complaining about a possible expulsion of Matheus Pereira.

Facundo Bernal, from Fluminense, tried to tackle the Cruzeiro midfielder and, during the challenge, was hit by the opponent's arm. 

No foul was called on the play. Watch below:

After the incident, the Uruguayan required extensive medical attention to stop the bleeding on his eyebrow.

The referee even went to the monitor to review the play but chose not to apply any punishment to Matheus Pereira.

The Cruzeiro player had already been warned with a yellow card in the first half.

Do you think he should have received a second yellow? A direct red? Or did the referee make the right decision? Tell us in the comments!
