Controversy in the Brasileirão! Player sent off for robbery gesture 🟥 | OneFootball

The match between Vitória and Palmeiras was full of arguments between the players and the refereeing team in the first half.

Rubro-Negro had two players sent off within a matter of minutes.

Cacá was the first to receive a red card after fouling Jhon Arias.

Then, Luan Cândido made a stealing gesture to criticize the decision and was also sent off.

In both situations, VAR had to intervene to call the referee to the monitor and review the incidents.

Vitória’s frustration with the refereeing had started even earlier at Barradão.

The home side appealed for a red card for Maurício after the Palmeiras player caught Cacá on the arm in the chin area. Watch the play below:
