Flamengo's lawyers are awaiting the publication of the ruling in Bruno Henrique's trial at the Superior Court of Sports Justice (STJD) to file a request for a stay of execution. The striker was suspended for 12 matches by the First Disciplinary Committee, a decision made by a majority vote (4-1).


The punishment is effective immediately, making the player unavailable until a decision is made on appeals from both the defense and the Superior Court of Justice (STJD) Prosecutor's Office. Bruno Henrique was charged under Article 243-A of the Brazilian Code of Sports Justice (CBJD), accused of manipulation by forcing a yellow card in the 2023 match against Santos at Mané Garrincha Stadium, for the Brazilian Championship.


SUSPENSIVE EFFECT


Flamengo 's legal department is expected to submit the request for a stay of execution in the coming days. If accepted by the reporting auditor or the STJD Plenary, Bruno Henrique will be able to return to the field before the final judgment on the appeal.

Internally, the expectation is that the appeal will have a chance of success, as there was disagreement among the auditors about the statute of limitations on the complaint. Therefore, there is a possibility that the striker will be cleared to face Juventude next Sunday (September 14th), in the 23rd round of the Brasileirão.


ARGUMENT FROM CONTRADICTION

For the lawyers, the situation creates the following contradiction: "How can Bruno Henrique be innocent of harming Flamengo, but guilty of influencing the outcome of the same game?" The auditors who voted for the conviction argued that, given a CBJD that was out of date with regard to sports manipulation, the best solution was to classify the conduct under the article on violation of "sports ethics ."

Former player Romário , who shone at Flamengo after leaving Barcelona in 1995, was surprised live on GE TV while commenting on historic quotes from his career . During Fred's segment, Romário sought to contextualize a moment in which he had been misinterpreted.


The striker explained that, in an interview about the Carioca final between Flamengo and Botafogo, he didn't finish the sentence: "I want to clarify this. Flamengo vs. Botafogo, Carioca final, I had scored three goals and Flamengo won the Guanabara Cup," he said before finishing.


Romário explains controversial phrase in Flamengo game: "There is only one God"


"It was Flamengo 's centenary and I had just come back from Barcelona. The guys asked me, 'So, what do you have to say?' It's like this, here in Rio de Janeiro, there are lots of kings. But there's only one God. When I said there's only one God, they grabbed me and took me away. But the end of the sentence was this: 'There's only one God, who is up there, and I'm the one who has the most faith in him. That's why things happen to me.' I couldn't say the end of the sentence, because the guy carried me," concluded the 'Shorty'.

VIDEO RECOVERY


The situation became even more uncomfortable when GE TV itself aired the original video of the interview, showing Romário finishing the sentence differently, saying: " Kings have two, three, four, five. But God, now he knows who he is . He's Romário, I'm God, they know that, they have to respect me ."

The former striker was speechless, frowning and remaining silent, while Fred appeared embarrassed as he commented on the moment live: "Well, there you go..." The scene generated immediate repercussion among fans and internet users, who shared the video on social media.

ROMÁRIO AND THE CENTENARY OF FLAMENGO

Romário's memory encompasses a defining period in his career and that of Flamengo, including the club's centennial and the Guanabara Cup victory. Despite the tense atmosphere on air, the episode reinforces the charisma and unique personality of the former player , who always marked his time at the Mais Querido with goals, controversies, and memorable statements.
