The flamingo denounced today aggressions and racist gestures of the fans of the Catholic University during the meeting of Libertadores Cup disputed in Santiago de Chile and requested a harsh sanction for the “crusader entity”, incapable of controlling its brave fans.
In a message broadcast on social networks, the ‘Mengao’ board assured that “on Thursday night, at the San Carlos de Apoquindo stadium, in Santiago de Chile, unfortunate scenes of racism, stone throwing, bottles and flares were recorded (a child was injured) by the opposing supporter towards the red and black supporter”.
“We can’t take this anymore! Severe measures have to be taken,” added the Brazilian club. Shortly after the match, a series of images of the stands and outside the stadium were posted on social media, one of which showed a child with a bleeding head wound.
The complaint comes just three days after supporters of the Catholic University and its greatest rival, Colo Colo, fought in the stands of the same stadium during the national classic, which ended in a one-goal tie.
Flamengo won today (2-3) and placed at the head of their Copa Libertadores qualifying group with nine points, six more than their rival who is third.
The entity of ‘la fringe’ is going through a serious game and results crisis that keeps it in the lower part of the national classification, very far from the leaders, Colo Colo and Unión Española.
