Bruno Henrique’s lawyer on STJD hearing: auditors’ views revealed | OneFootball

Was Bruno Henrique judged this Monday (10)?

The Superior Court of Sports Justice (STJD) postponed the trial of the forward Bruno Henrique, which was supposed to happen this Monday (10), to the 13th, due to the request for review by auditor Marco Aurélio Choy. Upon leaving the hearing, the lawyer for the number 27, Michel Assef Filho, explained that the athlete did not commit any infractions in the eyes of justice.

— The yellow card itself, forcing a yellow card, is not illegal if the player acts within the rules of the game. The Sports Justice already understands that this is not something illegal. Therefore, it cannot be said that it is an unsportsmanlike attitude, as the Sports Justice has already examined the topic, and we know that, in every round, there is someone strategically forcing a yellow card —, began Michel Assef Filho.

— Regarding the foul, it was very clear and evident that, even if there was something planned with Flamengo itself, that is, “I need to get the third yellow card,” perhaps, within the match, things change. Bruno Henrique was completely in the game. I understand that it is a position of the defense and Flamengo, he managed to execute —, he concluded.

WHAT IS THE CONTEXT OF THE TRIAL?

Bruno Henrique received a yellow card in the match against Santos, at the Mané Garrincha Stadium, in a game valid for the 2023 Brazilian Championship. After complaining to the referee, the Flamengo player was expelled after receiving a second warning.

Thus, Bruno Henrique began to be investigated for possible favoritism by receiving the yellow card to help bettors. In the second half of this year, the red-black athlete obtained a suspensive effect until the final decision.

HOW WAS THE HEARING THIS MONDAY?

Bruno Henrique attended the hearing that would determine the future of the Flamengo player for the rest of the season. However, Dr. Marco Aurélio Choy requested a review of the records, meaning he asked for more time to evaluate the documents.

Thus, the STJD will set a new date to resume the trial of Bruno Henrique's case. Finally, the new hearing will take place on Thursday (13), as the sole agenda, at 3 p.m. (Brasília time).
