Gerson reacts to mass brawl in Cruzeiro v Atlético-MG clash | OneFootball

What did Gerson say about the fight between Cruzeiro and Atlético-MG players?

Gerson took part in the brawl during the Cruzeiro vs. Atlético-MG match this Sunday (08), in the final of the Campeonato Mineiro. The player, therefore, apologized to the fans after leaving the field.

“This is not a good example, especially since there are so many children watching”, said Gerson, former Flamengo player, after the fight in the Cruzeiro vs. Atlético-MG match. It’s worth noting that the midfielder received a red card.

Will Gerson be able to play against Flamengo?

Yes! Despite having received a red card, Gerson will be available to coach Tite for the match against Flamengo. This is because the midfielder cannot be punished in matches organized by the CBF.

Gerson will therefore serve his suspension only in the next season of the Campeonato Mineiro, if he remains with the Minas Gerais team in 2027. Thus, the player will travel as usual to Rio de Janeiro to face Flamengo in the Brasileirão.

When is the Flamengo vs Cruzeiro match?

The match between Flamengo and Cruzeiro is scheduled for 9:30 PM (Brasília time) this Wednesday (11), at Maracanã. The clash, valid for the fifth round of the Campeonato Brasileiro, will be broadcast on Rede Globo (open channel), GETV on YouTube, and Premiere (pay-per-view).
