Plata received a red card after a hard tackle on Arboleda from São Paulo

Gonzalo Plata once again received a red card in a Flamengo match, this time against São Paulo, at Vila Belmiro, in the Brazilian Championship. For this reason, the management intends to fine the forward for the expulsion.

According to journalist Mauro Cezar Pereira, the understanding behind the scenes at Flamengo is that Plata has been exposing the team due to his recklessness. Therefore, the management's idea is to fine the forward, especially because of the frequency.

Was Flamengo's management bothered by Plata's red card against Racing (ARG)?

In the match against Racing (ARG), during the second leg of the Libertadores semifinal, Plata also received a red card. At that time, the forward was not punished by Flamengo's management, but it did cause discomfort among the club's directors.

Is Plata out of Flamengo's next match and the Libertadores final?

Yes! Plata will not be available for Flamengo for the match against Santos on Sunday (09). Additionally, the forward will not be able to play against Palmeiras in the Libertadores final, as he was sent off against Racing in the competition's semifinal.

When is Flamengo's next match?

Thus, Flamengo returns to the field at 6:30 PM (Brasília time) on Sunday (09), against Santos, for the 33rd round of the Brazilian Championship. The match will be held at Maracanã, with broadcast on Premiere, pay-per-view.
