Andreas avoids punishment for gamesmanship in Corinthians v Palmeiras | OneFootball

The São Paulo Sports Justice Tribunal has decided not to charge Andreas Pereira for the controversy that occurred during Palmeiras’ 1-0 victory over Corinthians in the seventh round of the Campeonato Paulista. The Verdão midfielder stepped on the penalty spot before Memphis Depay’s kick, which caused Depay to slip and miss the shot.

The legal body reviewed footage of the incident but cleared the number 8 of any wrongdoing. It’s worth noting that the episode was not mentioned in referee Raphael Claus’ match report.

On the other hand, Luighi was charged by the TJD-SP. The forward was cited under Article 258 of the CBJD, which deals with “conduct contrary to discipline or sporting ethics not specified by other rules of the Code.” The prescribed penalty ranges from one to six match suspensions.

The charge is related to the incident after Palmeiras’ goal, scored by Flaco López in the 39th minute of the second half. During the celebration, Luighi kicked a ball that was beside Hugo Souza’s goal into the stands, hitting a fan.

Another person charged was Abel Ferreira. Sent off in the Derby, the coach was cited under Article 258, §2, II of the CBJD for “disrespecting the refereeing team or disrespectfully complaining about their decisions.” The prescribed penalty is from one to three match suspensions.

Palmeiras will also be judged. The club was charged under Articles 257, §3, and 191, III of the CBJD. Corinthians, meanwhile, will answer for Articles 257, §3, and 213, III.

On the Corinthians side, ball boy Alessandro da Silva was charged under Article 254-A, §1, for “physical aggression during the match.” He may be suspended for 35 to 180 days. Sent off during the classic, Alessandro was mentioned in the match report for “kicking” Ramón Sosa’s leg during the confusion after Palmeiras’ goal.

The hearing at the TJD-SP is scheduled for next Tuesday, starting at 10 a.m. (Brasília time).
