Garrincha received a suspension which was overturned at the request of his president.
Prior to the creation of the red card, sure, but overturned nonetheless.

It is disingenuous to suggest the Ronaldo’s 3 game suspension
did not affect his ability to play in this year’s World Cup.

He received a reduced suspension and probation.
He definitely deserved the suspension.

Flo did not.

You have yet to address that VAR did not
Follow FIFA protocols.

Why is that?
