Hopefully more South American football from the BBC and less women’s crap because it’s absolutely shite.
Was a cracking game.
Funny how the game loops around... the manager for Flamengo had a job in Portuguese football back 14 years back. He lost the title and Europa League in the 92nd minute only to win this game in the 92nd minute.
The semi final for Flamengo finished 4-4.
The goalscorer Gabigol is well known to the refs picking up a booking in every game in the competition, being sent off twice. Once for dissent (booking) then slow clapping the referee while booking him (2nd yellow). And in the final, once for “taunting the opposition fans”
