The decision was released on Saturday (15), with the signature of President Dilson Neves arrived. In his opinion, the president of the TJD-RJ highlighted the severity of Barboza’s attitudes, stating that the athlete of Botafogo acted unfortunately when seeking to assault colleagues by profession and was still beaten by the player Cleiton. “Barboza has the responsibility of being a good example since they can influence the crowd, other athletes, young athletes, children,” said the agent. About Alex Telles, the president also reinforced the player’s responsibility to be a good example.
The disrespectful attitude of the steering wheel, cursing the deputy of the match, was considered unjustifiable and his preventive suspension was seen as adequate. Cleiton, who physically assaulted Barboza, also received the same punishment. The aggression, as reported in the Precedent, was one of the main reasons for the sanction imposed on the Flamengo player. The summary of referee Bruno Mota Correia described that Barboza began the confusion by provoking striker Bruno Henrique, which resulted in an exchange of punches between Barboza and Cleiton, as well as a broken tooth.
The midfielder Gerson was also involved, exchanging pushes with Barboza and being expelled in the game. In the locker room tunnel, the delegate Marcos Vinícius de Abreu Trindade reported curses of Alex Telles, who criticized the posture of the delegate and other Flamengo players. These attitudes further aggravated the situation. Barboza, when manifesting on social networks, lamented violence.
“Play the stone and hide your hand? Never. Each one knows what they do, the reasons and the consequences. Defending the shield that I represent anyway is what helped me in my professional career to be who I am and achieve the things I got, and who disrespects it does not deserve my respect at all. However, violence will never be the best way to solve things, ”said the defender.
In addition to accepting the prosecution’s request in suspending those involved in the confusion, Chagas also rejected the suspension to referee Bruno Mota Correia. The case will be tried by TJD-RJ next Wednesday (19).
