Daronco is in check with Flamengo fans for mistakes in Mais Querido games

Flamengo, once again, finds itself at the center of a controversy involving refereeing in national competitions, specifically in Brazilian Cup. Recently, referee Anderson Daronco was appointed to referee a game for the red and black team, reigniting the indignation of fans and managers due to a history of controversial decisions.

The last match refereed by Daronco, which had Flamengo on the field, took place against Palmeiras, in São Paulo. On that occasion, a specific situation generated great discussion: an unmarked penalty in favor of Flamengo, considered very clear by the team and most of the fans. This move left marks and encouraged the idea that the Rio club was harmed by refereeing errors that directly interfered with the result of the game.

 WRONG CHOICES BY REFEREES 

Daronco's choice for a new match for Flamengo in Copa do Brasil has reignited the debate about the impartiality and quality of referees' decisions in the main national competitions. The discontent of Flamengo with refereeing in the competition is not something new. In a previous match against Corinthians, another controversial episode involving referee Wilton Pereira Sampaio caused losses to the Rio club. In this confrontation, Flamengo was also harmed by decisions that, according to the team and fans, favored the opponent, which contributed to a feeling of injustice accumulated on several occasions.

The dissatisfaction of Flamengowith the choice of referees for its games in the Copa do Brasil raises questions about the selection process of these professionals for decisive and large-scale matches. The CBF arbitration committee has been constantly criticized by several clubs, who allege a lack of criteria or even bad intentions in some of the choices. In the specific case of Anderson Daronco, in addition to the unmarked penalty against Palmeiras, other controversial decisions during the game also drew attention, intensifying the perception that Flamengo were disadvantaged on that occasion.

PROBLEMS MAY BE EXPERIENCED

Fans of Flamengo, who closely follow every detail of the games and the referees' performances, have used social media to express their discontent. Many question the fact that the club is frequently selected for games with referees who already have a history of controversial decisions in the team's previous matches. In the case of Wilton Pereira Sampaio, the referee who refereed the game against Corinthians, the complaints focused on errors that directly influenced the final result, consolidating the perception that Flamengo has been repeatedly harmed by inadequate refereeing choices in the Copa do Brasil .
