Flamarion (footballer, born 1951)

Flamarion Nunes Tomazolli (27 August 1951 – 27 January 2020) was a Brazilian professional football player and manager.

Career
Formed in the youth teams of Sete de Setembro in Belo Horizonte, he played for Guarani from 1966 to 1976, scoring the club's first goal in Brazilian championships, in addition to frequently being placed in the best XI in history. He also played for Cruzeiro, where he was state champion in 1977, Botafogo de Ribeirão Preto and Sport.

In 1968, the player was at the center of an alleged scheme to benefit Palmeiras, who were at risk of being relegated in that year's edition of the Campeonato Paulista. The player entered the field in the match, held on 29 June 1968, causing Guarani to exceed the number of athletes with amateur contracts on the field, thus being later punished by the sports court, directly benefiting Palmeiras. Comercial de Ribeirão Preto, who ended up relegated instead of Palmeiras, managed to overturn the relegation by proving in court the agreement between the teams, returning to the first level directly in 1970.

Death
Flamarion died in his hometown, in Santa Casa de Ouro Fino, due to complications from cancer.
