Arrascaeta sends message to rivals after rows in Flamengo match | OneFootball

Refereeing controversy in the match between Flamengo and Vitória included an Arrascaeta incident

Flamengo’s win over Vitória on Wednesday (22) featured refereeing controversy, but the target of the criticism is Mengão. So, the next day, Arrascaeta decided to taunt the outraged opponents for knowing that Fla is the one in charge.

“It’s not that they hate us… it’s just that every time they see us, we remind them who’s in charge,” read the caption posted on X, formerly Twitter. The message comes with a photo of the number 10 hugging captain Bruno Henrique.

Why do they hate Arrascaeta’s Flamengo?

According to Arthur Muhlenberg, the main social function of Clube de Regatas do Flamengo is to make everyone who isn’t Flamengo really p****d off. At the moment, however, opponents are complaining about three send-offs not given to red-and-black players on Wednesday (22).

Rivals wanted Luiz Araújo to have been shown a red card for hitting an opponent in the face with his arm. In addition, Saúl should have been sent off for the same reason. The number 10, meanwhile, supposedly should have headed to the locker room early for bringing down Ramon inside Vitória’s penalty area.

And what does the refereeing say?

Former referee PC Oliveira said that only Saúl actually deserved a red card for the incident in the 34th minute of the second half. By that point, Fla were already beating Vitória 2-1 at the Maracanã in the first leg of the fifth round of the Copa do Brasil.

And who’s in charge, Arrasca?

The post by the number 10 alongside Bruno Henrique shows the two biggest winners for the Most Beloved, both with 18 trophies. In addition, Mengão are the reigning champions of the Brasileirão and the Libertadores, the continental tournament in which Fla are the Brazilian club with the most titles.
