🎥 Ceni blasts friendly refereeing: you come here to be mugs

🎥 Ceni blasts friendly refereeing: you come here to be mugs Bahia were far from pleased with the refereeing decisions led by Jodis Nascimento de Souza during this Sunday’s (12) friendly against Fluminense . The Rio de Janeiro side beat the team from Bahia 2-0 thanks to goals from Hulk and Germán Cano. And coach Rogério Ceni did not hold back after the match at the Maracanã. Two incidents prompted the outburst: Erick’s disallowed goal for an alleged foul by Willian José — when the score was still 0-0 — and a possible penalty on Ademir that was not given.  Ceni pointed out that he had requested referees from outside Rio de Janeiro, which did not happen. And he accused the referee of having been " hired to make the result happen ." Jodis Nascimento de Souza is a referee from the Rio federation and has officiated fourteen official matches in CBF competitions this season. He was in charge of one Série A match, Atlético-MG’s 1-0 win over São Paulo in March. He has also refereed three Série B matches, four Série C matches,  two Série D matches, one Copa do Brasil match, two Copa Sul-Sudeste matches and one Brasileirão U-20 match.  What now? 📅 Ceni’s Bahia will be back in action next Friday (17), when they host Chapecoense in a postponed match from the fourth round of the Brasileirão. It is the only competition left on their schedule. They currently sit sixth in the table, with 26 points from 17 matches. Fluminense, meanwhile, are third with 31 points from 18 matches and will host Red Bull Bragantino on the same day. But that clash will be for round 19.  Check the updated Brasileirão standings here .  Photo: Catarina Brandão/EC Bahia This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.
