In Flamengo's last clash against Santos, valid for the 31st round of the Brasileirão and held at the Mané Garrincha Stadium, in Brasília, a regrettable scene occurred. Striker Bruno Henrique found himself at the center of an unpleasant incident when a Flamengo fan threw a glass of water in his direction. It all happened amid a tense moment in the match, when the red-and-black player was contesting the decision of referee Rafael Rodrigo Klein, who had just shown him the red card.
The match was already approaching the its end, with just 49 minutes elapsed in the second half. Flamengo fans were visibly frustrated with their team's performance and expressed their dissatisfaction by throwing glasses of water onto the pitch during a corner in favor of Santos. In a subsequent move, the São Paulo team opted for a short corner kick, and Bruno Henrique ended up committing a foul on Soteldo. As a result, referee Rafael Rodrigo Klein decided to show the yellow card to the red-and-black striker.
However, the situation worsened when Bruno Henrique decided to contest the referee's decision and express his dissatisfaction. At that moment, the referee showed the player a red card, meaning he would be expelled from the match. The striker continued to exchange words with the referee, showing his frustration at being sent off in a crucial game for his team. It was at that moment that the incident occurred.
While Bruno Henrique was involved in a heated argument with the referee, a Flamengo fan, apparently overcome with discontent with the situation, took an unacceptable attitude. He threw a glass of water towards the attacker, and the glass ended up hitting Bruno Henrique. This act of aggression by a fan is unacceptable and represents disrespectful and dangerous behavior.
This incident is a sad reflection of how the passion for football can, in some cases, lead to inappropriate behavior on the part of a fan. of fans. Although emotions often run high during matches, it is essential that everyone involved, from players to fans, maintain mutual respect and follow the rules of the game. The attitude of the fan who threw the glass of water at Bruno Henrique is harmful not only to Flamengo's image, but to football as a whole.
Furthermore, it puts the safety of players at risk in field. Incidents of this type can have serious consequences, and it is important that appropriate measures are taken to identify and punish those responsible for this act. Ultimately, the game between Flamengo and Santos should be an opportunity for fans to celebrate the sport and support their teams in a respectful way.
Unfortunately, the action of a single individual ended up diverting attention of what really matters in football: healthy competition and sportsmanship. We hope incidents like this serve as a wake-up call to the need to maintain respect and civility in sport, both on the part of fans, players and those charged with enforcing the rules. The passion for football should be a source of joy and unity, not unacceptable and violent behavior.

Flamengo said goodbye to the Women's Copa do Brasil after losing 1-0 to São Paulo, this Wednesday (17), at Morumbis. The Rio de Janeiro team even tried to react after falling behind on the scoreboard, but was unable to avoid elimination in the single duel of the round of 16. The decisive goal was scored by Duda Serrana, a standout for the São Paulo team.
In the first half, São Paulo dominated possession and adopted a more attacking approach , hindering Flamengo 's play. Flamengo struggled to exchange passes and impose their style. Even so, the visitors had the best chance of the first half: on a quick counterattack in the 30th minute, Duda had a good opportunity but shot wide.
Early in the second half, a poor clearance by the Flamengo defense resulted in the game-clinching goal. The defense poorly cleared the ball, and Duda Serrana fired a precise shot from outside the box, leaving Flamengo's goalkeeper with no chance . From then on, the Rio de Janeiro team pushed forward and sought to press in the final minutes, relying primarily on set pieces and crosses, but failed to create any real chances.
With this result, Flamengo ends its Women's Copa do Brasil campaign with one win and one loss. The team received approximately R$90,000 for its participation in the round of 16. After the final whistle, members of the Flamengo coaching staff complained about the refereeing in the center of the field, but the result remained unchanged.
Flamengo could take to the field with a different formation to face Estudiantes this Thursday (18), at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), for the CONMEBOL Libertadores. The duel, decisive for the club's ambitions in the continental competition, will be broadcast live on Disney+.

Emerson Royal reveals Filipe Luís's request at Flamengo: "Filipe wants me to be sharp, exploring my physical strength"
After the match, the full-back revealed a conversation with coach Filipe Luís, who advised him on attacking positioning: "I received criticism when I played injured because I couldn't give my best. But I wanted to stay on the field to help Flamengo . Filipe explained to me what he wanted from me: to get to the far post. I even asked my teammates to watch me during that movement," Royal said.
It was the full-back's first game since returning from injury. Royal had sprained his left ankle on August 13 against Internacional in the Copa Libertadores. Since then, he had only played a few minutes in the draw with Grêmio at Maracanã.
According to the player, Filipe Luís asked him to play differently than he was used to in his career: "At Tottenham, I played as a defensive midfielder, on the inside. But Filipe wants me to be sharp, exploiting my physical strength, passing, and crossing. He knows my ability to support, and that can really help the team ."
Signed in July for €9 million (approximately R$58 million) from Milan, Emerson Royal is competing for a spot with Varela, who was rested against Juventude due to a groin injury. " Big teams are like that; they always have top-notch players . Varela has a lot of quality, and so do I. The competition is healthy, we work hard, and the choice is Filipe's," said the full-back.
On Thursday (18), Flamengo faces Estudiantes in the Libertadores (quarter-finals, first leg), at 9:30 pm, at Maracanã . The Most Beloved only returns to the field for the Brasileirão on Sunday (21), against Vasco, also at the sacred temple.
