Forward Gabriel Barbosa, better known as Gabigol, is back in Brazil after a trip to Switzerland to participate in his trial on suspicion of doping test fraud. However, the hearing was postponed shortly after the player arrived in the European country. During his stay in Europe, Gabigol took the opportunity to tour France, but he is now back on Brazilian soil and focused on his preparation for the next challenges.

FLAMENGO OPENS THE GAME BY GABIGOL 

Gabigol, shirt 99 from Flamengo, will perform again this Saturday (8) at the Ninho do Urubu Training Center. The objective is to start work towards the confrontation against Grêmio, scheduled for next Thursday (13). Flamengo's technical team hopes to count on the player's willingness and skill to guarantee a good performance in the match.


The trial in Switzerland was postponed, taking many by surprise, including the player himself. Suspected of fraud in the anti-doping test, Gabigol traveled to the European country to defend himself against the accusations. The postponement brought a mixture of relief and frustration, as, on the one hand, it prolongs the uncertainty about the attacker's future, but, on the other, it allows him to focus fully on his career in Brazil while the process is not resolved.< /p>

Taking advantage of the unexpected change of plans, Gabigol took a brief tour of France. The player's social networks were updated with photos and videos of his activities in the country, showing a more relaxed side and enjoying a moment of leisure amid the tension of recent events. This rest break can be beneficial for your mental and physical health, better preparing you for the upcoming challenges with Flamengo.

For the most optimistic Flamengo fan, who still believes in the Brasileirão title, Saturday (28) will be crucial in the search for the next championship. This is because the first two placed enter the field for the 28th round. In Campinas, Palmeiras faces Atlético-MG, while, in Brasília, Botafogo hosts Grêmio. Flamengo only plays on Sunday (29), against Athletico-PR.

GAMES THIS SATURDAY

Palmeiras x Atlético-MG, 6:30 p.m., Estádio Brinco de Ouro da Princesa, Campinas


Botafogo x Grêmio, 9 p.m., Estádio Mané Garrincha, Brasília

None of the home teams will play in their usual stadium. Palmeiras chose to play at Brinco de Ouro, in Campinas, due to Eric Clapton's concert at Allianz Parque, on Sunday (29). Botafogo, in turn, reached an agreement with Grêmio for the match to take place in Brasília, in solidarity with the club from Rio Grande do Sul, which faced difficulties playing at the Porto Alegre Arena in the first round, due to the floods in Rio Grande do Sul .


There is a great possibility that Atlético-MG will enter the field with a reserve team. The Minas Gerais club played in the middle of the week, beating Fluminense in the quarter-finals of the Libertadores, and faces Vasco, on Wednesday (02), in the semi-finals of the Copa do Brasil. Palmeiras, on the other hand, is fully focused on the Brasileirão, after being eliminated from the Copa do Brasil by Flamengo and the Libertadores by Botafogo.


Botafogo, driven by its classification over the São Paulo in the Libertadores, arrives confident to face Grêmio. However, the team from Rio Grande do Sul is on alert, after losing at home to Criciúma and remaining just three points above the relegation zone.


SITUATION OF THE BRASILEIRÃO

Botafogo leads the Brasileirão with 56 points, followed closely by Palmeiras, with 53. If John Textor's team loses and Palmeiras win, Abel Ferreira's team takes the lead on goal difference. Fortaleza, which faces Cuiabá on Sunday (29), is in third place with 52 points, while Flamengo closes the G4 with 45 points and one game less.


FLAMENGO de Brasília), at Maracanã, for the 28th round of the Brasileirão. After the elimination in the Libertadores, the expectation is that the audience at the stadium will be one of the lowest of the year.

Flamengo's early elimination from the Libertadores generated harsh criticism from the red-and-black idol Júnior, in the edition of the Seleção SporTV program this past Friday (27). According to the commentator, the elimination was a reflection of the club's entire campaign.

Júnior also cited the wrong choices. Remembering that in the Libertadores debut, Tite chose to play with the mixed team against Millonarios and drew with the rival team. In other words, he prioritized the second leg of Carioca's final against Nova Iguaçu.


“The elimination took place in the first game at Maracanã. Yesterday we even had a little something to take advantage of, but in the first game practically nothing was taken advantage of. It was a mirror of the entire campaign that was made, wrong choices, the fact that you decide the second away from home is always complicated in a competition like the Libertadores”, said Júnior.


TITE ESTÁ PRESSURED IN FLAMENGO

Even before being eliminated from the Libertadores, Tite was already being pressured by the fans. With the elimination, charges increased. However, the red-black board evaluates the coach's work and rules out a dismissal before the clash against Athletico-PR.


The tendency is for Tite to also lead Mais Querido in the decisive clash of the Copa do Brasil , against Corinthians. If the work progresses and the coach achieves good results, the commander can survive in command of Rubro-Negro.

FOCUS ON THE NEXT CONFRONTATION

Thus, Seeking to improve his numbers in charge of Flamengo, Tite finalizes the red-black team's preparation this Saturday (28). Mais Querido returns to the field this Sunday (29), when they face Athletico-PR, in the Brasileirão, at 8pm.

The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) decided to challenge the panel that gave effect suspension for Gabigol. Therefore, the Flamengo striker is free to play and will be selected for this Saturday's game (20), against Criciúma, in Brasília, for the 18th round of the Brasileirão.

Therefore, the CAS decision partially accepted the Union's request to annul Gabigol's process. Therefore, without challenging the suspensive effect, the decision remains valid and the player is released until the final judgment. Flamengo and the player have already been notified about the decision.


Understand

In the last three days, after a request from attacker's defense, the court decided to release the athlete to continue active. The allegation is that the player could not have his career harmed by a technical issue in the trial. The CAS made official this Friday the partial annulment of the process, maintaining the suspensive effect on the athlete, but changing the panel of referees.

Punished in Brazil in March by Anti-Doping Sports Court of Justice (TJD-AD) , Gabigol decided to appeal to the CAS. In the Swiss court, the judging panel is made up of three arbitrators: one appointed by the athlete's defense, one by the CAS and theoretically one by the Union.


However, the Brazilian government requested the annulment of the process with the argument that he was not properly notified and, therefore, did not appoint an arbitrator for the trial. Thus, at the time of the suspensive effect, on April 30, and until this Friday there were two representatives from CAS and one from the player. With the annulment, the two arbitrators appointed by the court, Dolf Segaar and James Drake, resigned.

The Union will have until the 29th to appoint a representative to the new panel. CAS will also appoint a new arbitrator. These two, as indicated by Gabigol, will decide on maintaining the suspensive effect and will subsequently judge the case, which should take place by October.
