WHY THE PROTEST?

Flamengo fans are protesting due to constant refereeing errors that, according to them, harm the club in the Brazilian Championship. Among the main complaints is the failure to award clear penalties in favor of the team, which has affected match results.

In the most recent incident, the failure to award a clear penalty in favor of São Paulo benefited Palmeiras, who won the match and took the lead in the competition, indirectly harming Flamengo. This series of controversial decisions has increased the dissatisfaction of the fans, who are calling for greater fairness and rigor in refereeing.

AND ON THE FIELD?

While the fans express dissatisfaction with the refereeing, Flamengo and Palmeiras face each other this Sunday (19th), at 4 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã. The match, valid for the 29th round of the Brazilian Championship, brings together the top two teams in the competition, with expectations of an intense game and a decisive atmosphere.

The three points at stake could directly influence the title race. Thus, the red-black fans promise to strongly support the team from the stands, aiming to boost the team on the field.
