Danilo ‘hits back at’ Boto and blasts Flamengo v Estudiantes referee | OneFootball

What did Danilo say after Flamengo vs Estudiantes (ARG) in the Libertadores?

As he left Jorge Luis Hirschi Stadium, José Boto said the Flamengo locker room looked like a ‘war zone’ after the match against Estudiantes (ARG). In a press conference, Danilo pushed back on the club’s technical football director’s remarks, saying that this happens in Libertadores clashes. In addition, the number 13 also fired back at referee Piero Maza.

— But that comes down to contact, battling, heavy challenges… That kind of situation happens, especially in Libertadores matches. But when it gets to something that is clear, then we’re crossing a line in football. And I’m saying this whether it’s about Flamengo or any other team. There are some types of plays you just can’t get wrong -, said Danilo.

WHAT HAPPENED IN FLAMENGO VS ESTUDIANTES IN THE LIBERTADORES?

On Wednesday (29), Flamengo traveled to La Plata to face Estudiantes. Besides the pressure from the stands at Jorge Luis Hirschi Stadium, the Rubro-Negro also had to overcome extremely serious mistakes by referee Piero Maza.

That’s because, still in the first half, the official ignored a red card for Farías after the player scissored Emerson Royal. Then in the second half, the ‘man with the whistle’ also did not show a card to Palacios, who made a heavy challenge on Bruno Henrique.
