In the defeat by 2 to 1 for the Corinthians, Ramon Abatti Abel's refereeing was once again the target of complaints from Flamengo's sides. The defender Fabrício Bruno left the field complaining about the judge’s decisions. Coach Ramón Díaz, from the São Paulo club, also stated that the referee interfered in the game in a way that was detrimental to both teams. Ramon Abatti's poor command of the game is nothing new in Mengo games. The survey is from 'Mundo Rubro-Negro'.
Penalty not scored on Pedro in the Copa do Brasil
In the 2024 Copa do Brasil, Ramon Abatti Abel did not score a penalty on Pedro , in the game between Flamengo x Amazonas. Mais Querido qualified, but protested a lot against the arbitration, sending a letter to the CBF so that the error would not go unnoticed despite the red and black victory.
“The Clube de Regatas do Flamengo informs that it will formalize with the CBF a complaint for the clear penalty suffered by striker Pedro, not marked by the refereeing, in the 21st minute of the first half”, said the Flamengo statement.
In the 20th minute of the first half, in a corner kick for Flamengo, Léo Ortiz managed to win a live ball and passed to Pedro. The attacker came face to face with goalkeeper Marcão, who prevented the play by using his knee to stop the number 9's progress.
However, the VAR audio shows that the judge and video referee understood that there was no penalty because the goalkeeper hit the ball first. However, if he had not done so, the Amazonas archer would have hit Pedro in the same way, but the referee ordered the game to continue.
Penalty not scored in Everton Ribeiro against Palmeiras
No Brasileirão 2023, Ramon Abatti Abel had already failed to score a penalty for Mais Querido. Richard Rios made a charge on Everton Ribeiro's back, but the move was ignored by the referee. At that moment, the game was 1-0 for alviverde, but with a lot of playing time, Flamengo would still have time to try to turn things around. The charge was very clear, however, nothing was marked.
Ramon Abatti Abel had already harmed Flamengo against Corinthians
Against Corinthians, Ramon Abatti Abel had already been the protagonist of yet another questionable departure on your part. In Brasileirão 2022, the referee ignored an expulsion for the Corinthians side, and did not even show a yellow card after a very harsh tackle by Du Queiroz on Rodrigo Caio. The defender had to leave the field and was out for months due to injury. Even though Flamengo was absent for the game, Du Queiroz continued without problems within the four lines.
Judge also harmed the club against Internacional
Another error by Ramon Abatti Abel against Flamengo happened in the first round of the Brasileirão 2023, against Internacional. Mengão lost 2-1, but the second goal featured a simulation by the opposing player in the play. Despite the staging, which should have stopped the match, the play went well and Maurício scored his second goal of the game.

Flamengo won their debut in the Libertadores against Deportivo Táchira by 1-0, in Venezuela . With the result, Mengão leads Group C of the competition with three points, since Central Córdoba and LDU drew 1-1.

Everton Ribeiro completed the scoring. It had been 946 days without a win away from Rio de Janeiro in the continental competition.
FLAMENGO OUT IN THE LAST LIBERTADORES
Since then, Mais Querido has not managed to leave with a positive result away from home in the main South American competition. In 2023, Flamengo was defeated in its debut by Aucas , from Ecuador, by 2-1, in the penultimate match under the command of Vítor Pereira . Now with Jorge Sampaoli as coach, Rubro-Negro drew with Racing , from Argentina, and Ñublense , from Chile, in the group stage and was eliminated after losing 3-1 to Olímpia , from Paraguay.
In 2024, in a new away debut, Mengão drew 1-1 with Millonarios , from Colombia, and was defeated by Bolívar , from Bolivia (2-1), and by Palestino , from Chile (1-0), in the group stage. In the round of 16, Mais Querido again succumbed to the Bolivian club by 1-0, but advanced due to a 2-0 victory at Maracanã. However, after losing at home to Peñarol by 1-0 in the first leg of the quarterfinals, Tite's team was unable to get past the 0-0 draw and was eliminated from the Libertadores again .
FOCUS ON THE BRAZILIAN CHAMPIONSHIP

Psychological support in football has been gaining more and more ground, and at Flamengo it is no different . After a period without a permanent professional to take care of the mental health of its athletes, the club has once again invested in the sector.
