Bruno Henrique of Flamengo charged, faces possible 2️⃣-year ban

Yahoo02-08-2025
The Prosecutor's Office of the Superior Court of Sports Justice (STJD) charged Bruno Henrique, Flamengo's forward, with match-fixing this Friday (1).
Information from the portal Uol.
He risks being suspended for up to two years for deliberately getting a yellow card in a match against Santos in the 2023 Brasileirão.
There is no date yet for the trial.
The charge includes evidence from the criminal case against Bruno Henrique, which, according to attached conversation screenshots, shows he clearly informed his brother Wander Nunes Pinto Junior when he would receive the card that would suspend him.
Wander then confirms he will place bets on a betting site after receiving such insider information.
Bruno Henrique was charged based on two articles of the Brazilian Code of Sports Justice (CBJD): 243 (1st paragraph) and 243-A.
Article 243 addresses "deliberately acting in a way that harms the team you defend." There is an aggravation for having gained financial advantage. The prescribed punishment ranges from 360 to 720 days.
The second article refers to "acting contrary to sports ethics, with the aim of influencing the result of a match, event, or equivalent." The penalty ranges from 12 to 24 matches.
There is a possibility that the 34-year-old player may face a preventive suspension requested by Luis Otávio Veríssimo Teixeira, the president of the STJD.
Bruno Henrique was preserved in the match against Atlético-MG last Thursday (31). He is expected to return to Flamengo's starting lineup on Sunday (3), against Ceará.

Bombers star sent to tribunal for friendly fire act

Essendon veteran Dylan Shiel is facing a one-match suspension for a push that had "significant potential" to cause injury to teammate Luamon Lual. Shiel was referred directly to the tribunal after pushing Geelong opponent Mark O'Connor in the way of Lual during their 44-point loss to the Cats at GMHBA Stadium on Friday night. An airborne Lual, making an attempt at an intercept mark, tumbled over the top of O'Connor and landed heavily on his head. After a few seconds on the ground, Lual was able to walk himself off the field. The Bombers newcomer returned to the game but was eventually subbed out at three-quarter time. Luamon Lual left the field following this incident involving Mark O'Connor and Dylan Shiel.#AFLCatsDons — AFL (@AFL) August 8, 2025 The incident was deemed rough conduct by the match review officer but not graded. "A suspension of one match is the appropriate penalty having regard to both the impact to O'Connor," a statement by the match review officer said. "And the significant potential that Shiel's teammate, Luamon Lual, could have suffered a serious head or neck injury arising from Shiel's unreasonable conduct, which caused Lual's head and neck to make contact with the ground with force." The match review officer reiterated their position by stating the players owe "a duty of care to all other players, not just their opponents".

Official: Real Madrid confirm the departure of Reinier

Real Madrid have officially announced the departure of Brazilian midfielder Reinier Jesus, confirming that the 22-year-old has joined Atletico Mineiro on a permanent transfer. Signed from Flamengo in January 2020 for €30 million, Reinier arrived in Madrid with high expectations, following the successful pathways of fellow Brazilians Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo. Touted as one of the brightest prospects in South America at the time, he was even compared to Kaka for his style of play and attacking flair. A failed spell at the Bernabeu However, his time in Spain never truly took off. In five years under contract with Los Blancos, Reinier did not make a single first-team appearance. Instead, his career became a series of loan spells at Borussia Dortmund, Girona, Frosinone, and most recently Granada, none of which provided the breakthrough many had anticipated. Can Reinier rediscover and revive his career upon his return to Brazil this summer? (Photo by) Earlier this summer, he was linked with a loan move to Norwich City, but talks did not progress. Atletico Mineiro soon emerged as the frontrunners for his signature, with reports indicating that Madrid granted him a letter of freedom to facilitate his return to Brazil. Now, with the deal confirmed, Reinier will have the chance to relaunch his career in his homeland. In their statement, Real Madrid thanked Reinier for his professionalism during his years at the club and wished him and his family the best for the future. For Reinier, this move represents a fresh start after a challenging chapter in Europe and an opportunity to prove that the talent which once excited Madrid's scouts is still very much alive.
