Ancelotti watches as Daronco sends off player, Barboza reacts
At the Nilton Santos Stadium, Flamengo is leading Botafogo 2-0 this Saturday (14th), in the sixth round of the Brasileirão 2026.
The Rio de Janeiro classic is being watched by coach Carlo Ancelotti. Who might the Italian be observing for the call-up to the Brazilian National Team?
With the ball in play, the Rubro-Negro dominated the actions and, with high pressing, opened the scoring with Samuel Lino before the 15-minute mark.
And, at the end of the first half, Léo Pereira "emulated Zico" and executed a perfect free-kick to extend Flamengo's lead.
However, in the next play, Pedro was launched to go one-on-one with the goalkeeper and ended up being brought down by Alexander Barboza.
Referee Anderson Daronco initially called offside on the field, but after a VAR review, confirmed the position was legal and sent off the Botafogo defender.
Barboza then went crazy and faced off with Daronco, who stood his ground and confronted the black-and-white defender!
Social media, of course, didn't miss the chance to react to the moment that is "pure juice" of Brazilian football.
