Why could Flamengo lose home-field advantage?

According to UOL, the STJD classified the case under Article 213 of the Brazilian Code of Sports Justice (CBJD). In this case, the rule provides for punishment of those who fail to prevent or suppress disorder at a sports venue.

In addition, it is important to highlight that the prosecutor’s office requested that Flamengo lose home-field advantage. Finally, a fine of R$100,000 was also requested against Mais Querido.
