After receiving two yellow cards in 11 minutes during Flamengo's defeat to Bahia on Sunday (05), criticisms of Wallace Yan's behavior intensified. Commentator Galvão Bueno, for example, believes the 20-year-old needs to take care of his mental health.
— Someone needs to explain to this boy that playing football is one thing and getting into trouble is another. He needs psychological treatment. Anyway… great triumph for Bahia against a Flamengo that is worsening by the day -, stated Galvão while presenting the program on Band on Monday (06).
For former player Walter Casagrande, now a commentator, Wallace Yan has no psychological support whatsoever. Hence, he displayed controversial behavior against Bahia and Atlético-MG.
Flamengo was losing to Bahia 1-0 and was already one player down, as Danilo had been sent off in the first half. Then, coach Filipe Luís brought on forward Wallace Yan in the second half.

However, the young player soon received two yellow cards and was expelled, leaving Flamengo with two players down. Wallace Yan committed the infractions of excessive complaining and hitting player Gilberto in the face.
The result left Flamengo with 55 points and dropped them to second place. On the other hand, Palmeiras took the lead by defeating São Paulo and reaching the same number of points, but with one more victory.
Thus, the Rubro-Negro returns to the field on October 15, starting at 7:30 PM (Brasília time), against Botafogo, at the Nilton Santos Stadium, for the 28th round of the Brasileirão. The match takes place after the FIFA Date.
