Corinthians director slams Flamengo refereeing after Inter draw | OneFootball

Fabinho Soldado, Corinthians' football director, recalled the defeat to Flamengo on Sunday (28)

The Corinthians drew 1-1 with Internacional this Wednesday (01), at Beira-Rio, in the 26th round of the Brasileirão. Although unrelated to the match, Flamengo was mentioned in Porto Alegre. The director of the São Paulo team, Fabinho Soldado, complained about the refereeing in the team's last two games.

— Not just talking about this game, but also last week (Flamengo), it was clear what happened. Everyone saw that the throw-in was for Corinthians. It's the second game where Corinthians has been the better team on the field, and this kind of situation complicates things. Corinthians is very big, we will not accept this —, said Fabinho.

WHY ARE YOU CRYING, FABINHO?

This Wednesday (01), the Pernambuco referee Rodrigo Lima awarded a penalty to Internacional at 54 minutes of the second half. In Corinthians' view, the foul did not exist. Outraged, coach Dorival Júnior complained excessively and received a red card. On the penalty, Carbonero equalized the match (Gui Negão had opened the scoring).

In the previous round, against Flamengo, Corinthians lost at home. In Flamengo's winning goal, Gonzalo Plata clashed with Gustavo Henrique, and the ball went out on the sideline. The refereeing awarded possession to Mengão, the Ecuadorian took a quick throw-in, Carrascal carried it and passed to Luiz Araújo to score.

Despite no camera being conclusive, Corinthians fans insist that the throw-in should have been awarded to the home team. Just like against Internacional, the São Paulo team conceded a late goal against Flamengo, as Luiz Araújo scored at 41’ of the second half.

FORGET FLAMENGO, CORINTHIANS! CAN YOU?
