Crazy reaction from Felipe Melo to the referee! Received a red card

Former Galatasaray footballer Felipe Melo became a topical topic with the red card he received when running towards the referee from the bench. Images of this moment quickly spread on social media and attracted widespread attention.

The Fluminense players, who drew 3-3 with Corinthians at the Maracaná on Thursday, complained about the management of referee Paulo César Zanovelli.

After the foul committed by Samuel Xavier in the 71st minute of the game, Felipe Melo, 40, went crazy. Melo, who ran towards the referee and came face to face with him, received a red card and was sent off from the match.

Minutes earlier, midfielder Thiago Santos was also sent off for protesting on the bench. The incident that increased the tension on the field was due to a possible penalty awarded to Keno, where the referee fouled the Fluminense forward.

Fluminense complained about the referee’s management with their messages about X. In addition, Felipe Melo made fun of the penalty missed by Samuel Xavier.
