Atlético-MG’s main organized supporters’ group, Galoucura, confronted and threatened Reinier this Saturday (18), days after a controversial celebration.

Bernard scored in the 2-1 win over Juventud-URU in the Copa Sudamericana. And he put his hand to his ear. Reinier repeated the gesture.

The celebration sparked controversy at Galo. Bernard even issued a public apology. But the matter is still making waves.

So much so that Galoucura showed up outside Galo’s training session to protest. And one member even threatened Reinier.

"You live in Belo Horizonte, we’re gonna (sic) start beating you up, alright?!", one of the supporters said. Watch:

Atlético-MG sit in eighth place in the Brasileirão, with 14 points.

The club’s next match will be against Coritiba, at 4 p.m. on Sunday (19), at Couto Pereira, in Curitiba, in the 12th round.
