The Corinthians was fined R$ 20,000 by the Superior Court of Sports Justice (STJD) this Thursday for the throwing of objects onto the field at the Neo Química Arena during the classic against Palmeiras, in the first leg of the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil.

The match took place on July 30 and ended with Timão's victory by 1-0. With this result, the home team secured their spot in the quarterfinals, confirmed the following week with another win over the rival at Allianz Parque.

“At 39 minutes of the second half, the match was interrupted due to the throwing of various objects by the home fans towards the field, including lighters, electronic cigarettes, and cups. These incidents occurred where the visiting players were warming up, at the bench, and also in the technical area of the same team,” reported Wilton Pereira Sampaio in the match summary.

Timão was charged under article 213 of the CBJD (Brazilian Code of Sports Justice). In the trial conducted by the 3rd Disciplinary Commission, the rapporteur Rafael Bozzano voted for the punishment of Corinthians, and this was supported by the other auditors.

Corinthians is acquitted in another complaint

On this Thursday, Timão had another case judged by the 6th Disciplinary Commission of the STJD, also due to objects thrown onto the field in another match against Palmeiras, valid for the Brazilian Championship, on August 31.

“I report that at 15 minutes and 34 minutes of the first half, two objects were thrown onto the field from the Sport Club Corinthians Paulista fans, the first during the celebration of the visiting team's goal and the second behind assistant referee no. 2, not hitting any player on the field,” wrote referee Ramon Abatti Abel in the “occurrences/observations” section of the summary.

This time, however, the commission acquitted Corinthians of the accusation, justifying that the club identified the fans responsible for throwing the objects onto the field at the Neo Química Arena.

In this judgment, Corinthians and Palmeiras received a fine of R$ 2,000 each. Both clubs were reported for the delay in restarting the match and fined R$ 1,000 per minute of delay, according to article 206 of the STJD.
