The incident happened in the second half, when Fluminense was leading 2-0. Bruno Henrique fell after being touched by Thiago Silva inside the box.

“You have to analyze the play as a whole, not just the collision,” said PC.

According to PC, the Flamengo striker gives up on going for the ball to provoke contact and force a foul situation, hindering the action of the Fluminense defender.
