In the last confrontation between Flamengo and Fluminense, valid for the Rio championship, a controversy took over the game and had repercussions beyond the four lines. Renowned sports journalist Mauro Cezar Pereira expressed his dissatisfaction with the refereeing, specifically in relation to the failure to award a penalty to Leo Pereira, Flamengo's defender, during the clash against rival Tricolor. The move in question occurred at a crucial moment in the match, generating heated debates about the referees' actions.
The incident that triggered Mauro Cezar's criticism occurred when Leo Pereira was involved in a move inside the area, where there was unequivocal contact between the red and black defender and a Fluminense player. However, to the surprise of many, the referee chose not to award the maximum penalty, a decision that generated outrage among fans and, subsequently, gained prominence in the sports media.
The performance of the referees and the use of the video referee (VAR) were also criticized by Mauro Cezar and other sports analysts. Above all, the discussion became even more intense due to the possibility of reviewing the move by VAR, a tool designed to correct crucial refereeing errors. However, even given the availability of this technology, the decision remained unchanged, leaving questions about its effectiveness and impartiality.
It is important to highlight that the debate surrounding the referees' actions was not limited to just the match between Flamengo and Fluminense, but it reverberated throughout the context of Brazilian football. The transparency and reliability of arbitration decisions became central topics of discussion, with several experts and fans expressing their concern about the integrity and impartiality of competitions.
In an interview after the game, Mauro Cezar highlighted the seriousness of the incident and emphasized the need for a more rigorous analysis by the authorities responsible for Rio de Janeiro football. His criticism was not limited only to the failure to award the penalty, but also to the general quality of refereeing in the region, pointing to a possible need to review and improve the protocols and procedures adopted.

“For me, it was a foul. at Léo Pereira, and it's outside the area, but there's an imbalance behind. We and Bahia whistled there. He gave it to Michael. The criteria confuse me. Claus confuses me. He gets in the way of my ideas. Having made this observation, there is a context, there is a possibility of a shot going towards the goal, there is a surplus with Léo to define. Afterwards, he is able to finish the play or interrupt to recover”, said the coach.
Gerson also criticizes the refereeingAfter the match, Gerson also complained about a foul not marked in the play that led to Vasco's goal. “An excellent match. We dominated practically the entire game. Unfortunately, in the end, on a ball that in my opinion was a foul, the referee didn't give it and we conceded the goal. Vasco only had this chance. We are sad to have played an excellent match and conceded a goal at the end”, said the Flamengo captain. p>The play
