The Brasileirão 2024 began with several refereeing controversies and continues to be marked by several referee errors, including against Flamengo. Thus, the CBF received this last Friday (10) a request from the National Association of Football Referees (ANAF) to dismiss Wilson Seneme and change the entity's arbitration commission.
According to the document of ANAF, the Brazilian Championship is going through the worst moment in terms of refereeing. Furthermore, the entity was questioned about the lack of criteria and transparency in the referees' statements on the field, damaging the progress of the tournament.
CHECK OUT THE OFFICIAL RELEASE:"In light of the latest events involving Brazilian arbitration, which arrived at the CTI with no signs of improvement, the National Association of Football Referees – ANAF, will send a letter to the CBF today asking for the immediate dismissal of Wilson Seneme and his entire commission.
There is a common sense in Brazil that Brazilian arbitration is going through the worst moment in its history and the departure of the current CBF arbitration director could be the way for referees to return to refereeing without fear and with quality on the field of game.
I receive calls every day from arbitration professionals from all over the country who are dissatisfied with the current management. There is also a lack of criteria in the scales and respect for many professionals, including women in management. “Seneme” practically disappeared from Series A of the Brazilian Championship.
In each round, the referee makes mistakes and there is no one on the commission's side to encourage the approximation of criteria, nor to carry out continuous training to improve the performance. level presented this season.
In light of this horror show, we will ask the president of the CBF, Ednaldo Rodrigues, to immediately dismiss the president of the arbitration commission and all members of his department and hire someone that at least the minimum he can do, since just as happened while he was director of referees at Conmebol, Wilson Seneme failed and needs to leave his position before the institutional damage is even worse.”
ERRORS AGAINST FLAMENGOSince the beginning of the current edition of the Brasileirão, Flamengo has been constantly harmed by arbitration. This is because Mais Querido was harmed in the games against Botafogo and Bragantino. In the classic, the Rubro-Negro complained about a foul on Fabrício Bruno, resulting in an opponent's goal.
Against the Bragança Paulista team, they had two errors. The first was the cancellation of the red card for Luan Cândido after fouling De La Cruz and the second was the push that Luiz Araújo received at the edge of the area and the VAR did not call it.

The Flamengo it was only tied with Cuiabá on Saturday night (6), in a game valid for the 15th round of the Brasileirão. After the game, Tite held a press conference and praised Gerson, highlighting his quality in being able to play in various positions on the field.
Sometimes the guys call him 'Joker'. Sometimes, it is very difficult to perform two or three functions on the field", said Tite, praising the number 8 of Mais Querido after a draw with Cuiabá.
TEAM HIGHLIGHTUs In recent games Gerson has been one of the best players for Tite's Flamengo. Furthermore, Mais Querido's number 8 is an example off the field for the younger players and they have strengthened their leadership of the group.
SITUATION OF FLAMENGO IN BRASILEIRÃOWith the draw against Cuiabá, Flamengowas at 31 points and will continue another round in the lead of the Brasileirão. However, it is possible that Mais Querido will see its title competitors come close, as that only three points separated them.
FOCUS ON THE NEXT CONFRONTATIONThus, the Flamengo squad returns to the field only on July 11th, when they face Fortaleza, in a match valid for the 16th round of the Brasileirão. This way, the team can have a rest period until the next game.

Flamengo drew 1-1 with Cuiabá on Saturday night (6), at Maracanã, in a match valid for the 15th round of the Brazilian Championship. Despite the unexpected result, Rubro-Negro secured the lead in the competition until the end of the round. After the game, coach Tite analyzed the team's performance.
Flamengo was behind on the scoreboard, but pressed throughout the game, managing to equalize with a goal from Pedro. However, the team was unable to break through Cuiabá's defensive block to turn the match around. A highlight of the second half was the replacement of Werton and Lorran with Carlinhos and Matheus Gonçalves, something that Tite explained after the game.
Coach Tite highlighted the performance of goalkeeper Walter, from Cuiabá, as fundamental to the draw. “Walter had a great game, I think there were 11 shots on goal. In a volume created, with a series of adversities, I will not talk about the calendar, I have already said it and I do not want to be repetitive. We had the search until the final moment. The game presented itself, we tried to use two pivots, we replaced the boys to create the alternatives we needed and here is the support for the boys, Lorran and Werton”, analyzed Tite.
GAME STRATEGY
Tite sought greater coordination in midfield, using Gerson and Lorran as play creators. “I wanted to work on the projection. I looked for an articulating player to give more volume. As I have Lorran together with Gerson, who are two articulators, they look for each other, the idea was to have them. Then, we put together a strategy to pierce their middle and lower block (Cuiabá). We had to make the movement in the last third”, he explained.
Tite also highlighted the difficulties faced due to the tight schedule, which hampered the team's preparation. “It’s difficult not to talk about the calendar issue. We analyze the opponent and there is no way to train for this game. You put it on video and try to make sure things arrive on time. It was the third game in a row in less than 72 hours. We weren't able to maintain the regularity to put ourselves in front of the goal, to have a cleaner finish. We have to recognize that, on the other side, Walter was on a bright day”, added the coach.
With the draw, Flamengo reached 31 points, maintaining the isolated lead of the Brasileirão. Next Thursday (10), the team returns to Maracanã to face Fortaleza, at 8pm. Cuiabá, in turn, reached 14 points and occupies 15th place in the table.

The National Association of Referees of Football (ANAF) wishes to paralyze the Brazilian Championship. According to the entity, the competition "is in check" after accusations by John Textor, owner of SAF do Botafogo, about manipulation of results.What happened?
ANAF stated that there are dissatisfied referees willing to protest in the next rounds of the Brasileirão. The entity issued a note signed by president Salmo Valentim.
She also criticized the president of the CBF Ednaldo Rodrigues and the president of the arbitration commission Wilson Seneme. The organization accuses Ednaldo of not paying the salaries of the female referees and sees Seneme as "unprepared to be in the position he assumed without any plan".
"For the good of football, the Brasileirão needs to be stopped! And a good thing A number of referees are willing to give this cry for freedom because they can no longer tolerate such indifference and disregard from the president of the CBF who, out of respect for football, should be ashamed and resign", says an excerpt from the ANAF note.
The ANAF demonstration takes place the day after John Textor's testimony at the Games Manipulation CPI. The director also presented the Good Game reports which, according to him, support the accusations of manipulation in the Brasileirão matches.
See the ANAF note in full"The referees need to unite and stop the Brazilian Championship; competition is in check after Textor's accusations that put the VAR under suspicion
There is no other way: it is necessary to stop the Brasileirão 2024 before make the VAR a police case. I have received countless calls from dissatisfied referees and there is already a large group that wants, in protest to what is happening, to interrupt the Brazilian championship in the next rounds.
All of this is happening. thanks to a horror show where the main protagonist is the former retired president of the CBF, Ednaldo Rodrigues, who is more concerned about his large salary at the entity, than, for example, in pay the referees who are working for free for the CBF. Since last year, female referees have acted without pay in several national women's tournaments. This clearly shows the setback that his management causes to Brazilian football and refereeing.
I have already said a few times that Wilson Seneme is unprepared to be in the position he took on without any plans. By the way, what is his academic background?
You don't need to be an expert on the subject to attest that the former director of referees at Conmebol, dismissed after pressure from some countries, out of common sense, given everything we are going through seeing and living, at the very least it should be removed. He has no command and made Brazilian arbitration reach rock bottom, being exposed in the Federal Senate by an inconsequential leader who, even without evidence, insists on saying that Brazil has referees who manipulate results. This not only puts the VAR under suspicion, but can also cause serious damage to the image of the refereeing.
For the good of football, the Brasileirão needs to be stopped! And a good number of referees are willing to give this cry for freedom because they can no longer tolerate such indifference and disregard from the president of the CBF who, out of respect for football, should be ashamed and resign!"
