What the referee wrote after Jorginho’s red in Flamengo v São Paulo | OneFootball

Arrascaeta fell in São Paulo's area, but the referee ignored the penalty and sent off Jorginho from Flamengo

The controversy in the match between Flamengo and São Paulo continues the next day. This is because, after the ignored penalty and the expulsion of Jorginho, it was discovered that referee Wilton Pereira Sampaio gave a red card to the player for accusing him of clowning around.

“Referee Wilton Pereira Sampaio reported in the match summary that he expelled Jorginho after São Paulo 2×1 Flamengo because the Flamengo midfielder said: ‘You are a disgrace! You're clowning around with us!’,” recorded Sampaio in the first round of the Brasileirão.

What happened in the controversial play between Flamengo and São Paulo?

Flamengo was already losing 2 to 1 when Alan Franco knocked down Arrascaeta in the São Paulo area. Thus, the Flamengo players intensely protested to the referee. Then, the midfielder got the worst of it by receiving the red card and missing the next round for Mengão.

Was there no VAR between Flamengo x São Paulo?

The video referee booth communicated to the field referee that Alan Franco's touch was insufficient to prevent Arrascaeta from playing. However, it is possible to state that Gávea's number 10 only lost the chance to score because of the foul.
