The 4-0 victory over Boavista with an excellent collective performance was greatly celebrated in the club’s locker room. Flamengo, but there was a noise in the post-game.

Gabigol was called by Tite to enter 14 minutes into the second half. While preparing to replace Pedro, referee Alex Gomes Stefano communicated with the VAR booth to check a penalty in favor of the Flamengo. Until the penalty was confirmed, Gabigol expressed his desire to hit a few times. He asked Tite if he couldn’t come in before the charge, but at the moment he didn’t get an answer. He even called Arrascaeta and asked the Uruguayan to ask Pedro if he couldn’t give up the ball.

The broadcast of the match, made by the Goat channel, captured the moment when Gabigol was still waiting for the substitution on the edge of the pitch and gestured, pointing to his own chest and then towards the Boavista area, where Pedro was.

As referee Alex Gomes Stefano did not authorize the substitutions – Bruno Henrique would also enter -, Pedro, the official beater in Gabigol’s absence, went for the ball and lost. Gabigol entered next, and the Flamengo ended the game with a 4-0 victory in a performance in which they completely dominated their opponents.

In the dressing room, with music playing and lots of celebration for the team’s great performance, Tite arrived and made a disciplinary correction to Gabigol, one of the first to leave the field after the final whistle, in front of everyone.

He didn’t like what he saw during the penalty and, without his idol retorting, he said that nothing revolves around him, that the Flamengo is more important than everyone else and that personal desires cannot harm the club. He asked for attitude and respect for the shirt that Gabigol wears.

It was also said that if Gabigol had started the match and was about to leave with the substitute on the edge of the field, he would take the charge. He made it clear that this criterion is for everyone and not just for Gabigol or Pedro. If it was Arrascaeta on the ball, for example, and another penalty taker was about to enter, it would be the Uruguayan who would hit.

People present in the locker room guarantee that it is common for Tite to make corrections, whether technical or disciplinary. Still according to the source, the 62-year-old gaucho likes to resolve things in front of the entire group to show as much clarity as possible.

Expressed dissatisfaction, the cast went through all the post-victory rituals. The performance, with 28 shots and complete supremacy by the Red and Blacks, was highly praised by Tite and the board while still in the Maracanã locker room.
