Ferroviário got eliminated and there's a reason I hate trans and fags.

The Day a Transgender Refereed a Ferroviário Match

During the pre-season for the 2011 Ceará State Championship, Ferroviário was training in the coastal town of Beberibe. On January 8, 2011, the “Tubarão da Barra” faced the municipal selection and lost the friendly match 2–1. What stood out more than the surprising defeat at Estádio Olavo Facó was the unprecedented officiating of the game. The transgender referee Valério Gama officiated all 90 minutes, drawing widespread attention—not only from the Ceará press but also at the national level. Locally, Valério was better known by their stage name as a transformist: Laleska Valéra

Ferroviário's coach was Mirandinha, and the starting lineup featured: Célio (Nefi), Bruno Pereira, Lúcio (Leandro Silva), Thiago Cazé (Paulo Rogério), Andrezinho (Brasinha), Glaydstone (Thiago Gaúcho), Rogério Manaus, Leandro Sobral (Ângelo), Teles (Madson), Chalita (Juranílson), and Rômulo (Rafael Gaúcho)

The team's only goal was scored by Juranílson, while Valinho and Vitor netted for the Beberibe selection, giving them a 2–0 lead in the first half. Notably, striker Chalita also missed a penalty during that period. Ultimately, it wasn’t the gameplay but Laleska’s refereeing that became the defining moment of the match—one that foreshadowed Ferroviário’s poor campaign in the state championship that year, escaping relegation only in the competition’s final rounds
