A strategy that is becoming more and more frequent in national football is the interruption of the game for the goalkeeper's medical attention. This tactic was used, for example, by Everson, from Atlético-MG, to try to hold back the offensive momentum of Flamengo last Sunday (28). However, the Rubro-Negro came out victorious anyway.
Everson is the seventh goalkeeper who has caused the most medical stoppages. The Atlético-MG goalkeeper has so far called the medical team onto the field five times. Thus, the stoppages of the Atletico defender within the Brasileirão lasted a total of 8m32s.
Check the complete list:
Despite the fame 'catimbeiro', the statistics show, however, that the Flamengo goalkeeper has not yet stopped any Brasileirão 2025 game to receive medical attention. The data is from Gato Mestre, a numbers panel on the 'GE' website.
However, still on Sunday (28), Léo Jardim took the second yellow card and left early for the locker room after calling the Vasco medical team. In the minutes, however, referee Flávio Rodrigues de Souza noted that the goalkeeper made the strategy to cool down the duel against Internacional and gain time. Thus, the team felt wronged.
So, Flamengo faces goalkeeper Everson again this Thursday (31), at 21h30 (Brasília time), for the first leg of the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil. Thus, as tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details of the game against Atlético-MG, through the website and social networks.
