Palmeiras player taken off in ambulance at Copinha, latest updates | OneFootball

The forward Samara, from Palmeiras, had to leave CERET, where the match against Botafogo took place, for the third round of the Women’s Copinha, by ambulance. She suffered a head collision, was substituted, and then taken to Hospital São Luiz Anália Franco, following the concussion protocol.

Palmeiras’ number 19 underwent medical tests, which showed no abnormalities. Despite the normal results, she will remain under observation.

The match had to be paused

Due to the absence of an ambulance, the match between Palmeiras and Botafogo was paused for about 30 minutes until the vehicle returned to the stadium. The teams finished the first half goalless, but the team from Rio scored twice and defeated the Palestrinas 2-0.

With this result, the Gloriosas secured a spot in the quarterfinals of the competition, with six points from three matches. Verdão is in a delicate situation and is hoping for a Grêmio loss against UDA to keep their hopes of advancing to the next stage alive.

Samara started in all three of Palmeiras’ matches in this Women’s Copinha and scored one goal, in the 6-1 thrashing of UDA.
