The Flamengo was defeated by Peñarol last Thursday (19), 1-0. However, the Uruguayans' goal generated controversy, as Erick Pulgar kicked the ball into his own hand when trying to clear it. Thus, Conmebol released the audio of the VAR analysis.
Five minutes into the second half, at a Peñarol intersection in the Mais Querido, a player from the Uruguayan team deflects the ball to the middle of the small area and Pulgar, when trying to move away with his back, kicks it into his own arm. The move generated a lot of complaints from the opponent's players, but the referee did not check it with the VAR.
So, this past Friday (20), Conmebol released the analysis of the move, and the official audio from the VAR booth, in communication with the field referee, Jésus Valenzuela, at the time of the play.
VAR AUDIO“In the 50th minute, a defender in red and black ends up unintentionally throwing the ball into his arm, which was there as a result of his movement, justifiable by the action he performs. This does not constitute a hand infraction, as the player throws the ball against his own arm in an indeliberate manner”, explained the analysis of the play.
“The referee observed the action, and see that the game continues . The VAR carried out its protocol review, analyzing it with the appropriate angles, speeds and correct considerations regarding the action. And it confirms the original decision on the field”, he added.
Already in the VAR booth, the decision was taken quickly and the analysis of the move was carried out quickly.
“Check completes, takes the hand, but it comes from his own foot, from the inside out”, pointed out VAR number one, Juan Soto.

This Sunday (22), Flamengo travels to Porto Alegre to face Grêmio in the 27th round of the Brasileirão. The Rio Grande do Sul tricolor will not have Renato Gaúcho in charge on the edge of the field. Assistant Marcelo Salles, known as "Fera", who had a spell at Flamengo in 2019, will be the replacement, as the coach is suspended.
Marcelo Salles took charge of Flamengo after Abel's departure Braga and the arrival of Jorge Jesus, in 2019. Now, he will have the opportunity to face the Rio club due to the punishment of Renato Portaluppi, who is serving the second of four suspension matches imposed by the STJD (Supreme Court of Sports Justice).< /p>
In addition, Renato's technical assistant, Alexandre Mendes, was removed from Grêmio on suspicion of involvement in a case of domestic violence. Mendes, who led the team in the last match against Red Bull Bragantino, last Sunday (15), will be replaced by Marcelo Salles, who will have James Freitas as technical assistant.
In 2019, Marcelo Salles led Flamengo in four matches, obtaining three wins (against Fortaleza, Corinthians and CSA) and one draw (against Fluminense). He left the club in 2020, during the pandemic, and was invited by Renato Gaúcho, the following year, to join his technical committee. "Fera" returned to Mais Querido during Renato's time at the club in 2021.
Salles was also part of Mengão's technical committee in winning the sixth Brazilian championship in 2009, under the command of Andrade. Grêmio and Flamengo face each other at 6:30 pm this Sunday (22). Mengão occupies fourth place in the championship, with 45 points, while Grêmio is in 14th place, with 28 points.
