Last Sunday (21), Real Madrid and Valencia faced each other, at the Mestalla Stadium, in the 35th round of La Liga. However, the match was marked by aggression on the field and racist insults from the home fans aimed at Vinicius Júnior. In solidarity with Cria do Ninho, in turn, Flamengo fans decided to organize a movement in the stands in support of the former Flamengo.
Through social media, the red-blacks have been promoting the anti-racist act to the next match at Maracanã. Fans predict an immediate start to the movement, which will consist of shouting Cria's name during Mengão games. The red-blacks are in contact with some groups of Organized Fans, so that the idea gains even more strength and repercussion.
UNDERSTAND THE CASE
During the match between Valencia and Real Madrid, Valencian fans hurled racist insults at Vinicius Júnior. Shouts of "Mono, mono" (monkey) resounded throughout the Mestalla Stadium. Tired of the situation, Cria even identified some attackers in the stands. However, the former Flamengo player was ignored by the referee.
At the end of the match, in a confusion on the field, Vinicius Júnior was hanged by the rival player, Hugo Duro. Trying to free himself from the athlete's hands, the former Fla hit him in the face. The match referee was called to the VAR and, upon evaluating the images, expelled Vini Jr, who tried to defend himself, but was again ignored.
After the match, the former Flamengo player took a stand in protest against what happened on social media and expressed his indignation at the episodes and the negligence of the sports sectors. Some world football players also showed solidarity with Garoto do Ninho with messages and statements.
With the expulsion, Vinicius Júnior will serve an automatic suspension in the match between Real Madrid and Rayo Vallecano (ESP). The match will be at 2:30 pm (Brasília time) this Wednesday (24), at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium. Meanwhile, Vini Jr will not be able to return to La Liga games until the 37th round, when the merengue team faces Sevilla (ESP) next Saturday (27).

Flamengo is close to confirming another international signing. Striker Michael Johnston, 26, should be officially announced as the club's new player in the coming days. The Irish athlete will arrive in Rio de Janeiro next Tuesday (8), coming from London, to undergo medical examinations and sign a contract with the Rio de Janeiro club. The information was released by journalist Cahê Mota, from the ge portal.
Having played for clubs in Scotland, Portugal and England, Johnston came through Celtic's youth ranks and made his professional debut in 2017. His peak for the Scottish club came in 2019, when he scored in the UEFA Europa League against Stade Rennais. Despite his potential, a series of injuries and intense competition within the squad have limited his prospects at Celtic.
In 2022, he was loaned to Vitória de Guimarães, from Portugal, and, at the beginning of 2024, he went to West Bromwich , from the English second division. His time in the Championship was positive, registering three goals and five assists, which aroused the interest of Mais Querido. The value of the negotiation is around R$ 37 million.
FEATURED IN ENGLAND
His good performances in English football earned Michael Johnston a call-up to the Ireland national team, for which he made his debut in March 2023. His first goal in an Irish shirt was scored a few months later, in a match against Gibraltar.
PLAYER HAS GOOD QUALITIES
The player plays as a second striker and is praised for his mobility on the field and good reading of the game . Now, he arrives at Flamengo as a bet to reinforce the offensive system in the final stretch of the season and increase competitiveness in the squad.

Flamengo x Atlético-MG (31/07) – Confrontation for the round of 16 of the Brazilian Cup
Flamengo x Internacional (13/08) – Direct duel for a place in the quarterfinals of the Libertadores
FLAMENGO HAS HIGH EXPECTATIONS

The system will follow the staggered pattern already used in previous matches, respecting the category and the order of priority defined in the membership contract. Flamengo reinforces that the purchase can be made online, through the club's official website and through the partner sales platform, with the possibility of payment by card or Pix.
With the team still alive in the three main fronts of the season, the expectation is that Maracanã will receive an audience of over 60 thousand fans in each of the matches. In particular, the classic with Fluminense and the game against Internacional, for the Libertadores, should concentrate the biggest demand.
