Gaviões da Fiel slam treatment in Florianópolis before Corinthians game | OneFootball

On the night of this Tuesday (21), the organized supporters group Gaviões da Fiel spoke out on social media to criticize the treatment they received in Florianópolis, Santa Catarina, before the match between Corinthians and Barra-SC, the first leg of the fifth round of the Copa do Brasil.

According to Henrique Vigliotti of Central do Timão, the fans faced delays getting into the stadium and were only able to enter Barradão after 36 minutes of play, with the match already underway, which prevented part of the crowd from watching the start of the game.

In an official statement published during the game, the supporters group expressed dissatisfaction with how the situation was handled and with the actions of the local Military Police.

“Gaviões da Fiel Torcida deeply regrets the treatment received in Florianópolis from the local Military Police. The disregard over abusive ticket prices in stadiums across Brazil is already enough. The supporters’ arrival is being marked by unjustifiable delays (the faithful have been in Florianópolis-SC since 12 p.m.), compromising their right to follow the team from the start of the match. How long will this disrespect toward those who make football a celebration continue? Enough!”, the supporters group posted.

The situation occurred around Ressacada Stadium, the venue for the first-leg clash of the fifth round of the Copa do Brasil. So far, there has been no official statement from local authorities regarding the case.
