Next Sunday (25), at 6:30 pm, Flamengo faces Bragantino, at Maracanã, in the 24th round of the Brasileirão. For the duel, the CBF defined Gustavo Bauermann as the responsible referee. The Santa Catarina native was already involved in another Mais Querido clash and even wrongly issued a yellow card to Luiz Araújo.

Remember the case

On July 28, Flamengo hosted Atlético-GO and won 2-0, with goals from Pedro and Arrascaeta. At 28 minutes into the second half, Tite decided to make three changes. The referee thought that Luiz Araújo was one of the players to leave and issued a yellow card to the attacker for delaying his departure.

However, it was not Flamengo's number 7 who would leave, but another teammate . The error caused a huge loss for the team. This is because the athlete received a third yellow card and was suspended from the next match, against São Paulo.

However, Gustavo Bauermann lied on the scoresheet when explaining the reason for the card. According to the referee, the yellow card was given for “Complaining/protesting (verbally or through gestures) blatantly and offensively against the referee's decision – For complaining about the referee's decisions”, wrote Bauermann in the match report. It is worth mentioning that on the field the signal was different.

At the same moment that he received the card, Luiz Araújo was outraged, even asking captain Gerson to talk to Bauermann to try to resolve the situation. However, the card was not removed and the player was out against his former team.
