Atlético-MG 🆚 Cruzeiro: referee flashes the wrong card twice in a minute | OneFootball

Referee Paulo Cesar Zanovelli went through unusual moments during the first half of the derby between Atlético-MG and Cruzeiro this Wednesday (15).

He got confused and showed the wrong card in two different incidents in less than a minute.

At 27:56, Zanovelli showed a red card to Kaiki Bruno. He immediately corrected himself and showed the yellow.

At 28:49, the referee again reached for the wrong shirt pocket when pulling out the card and showed red to Kaio Jorge. Once again, he acknowledged his own mistake right after and applied only a yellow.

See below how the incidents went:

In all, Zanovelli showed four yellow cards during the first half of the derby at Arena MRV.

In addition to Cruzeiro’s Kaiki Bruno and Kaio Jorge, Atlético-MG’s Guilherme Arana and Ivan Román were cautioned.

In the second half, Kaio Jorge received a red card (this time without the referee reversing it to a yellow) for making a “robbery” gesture with his hands after Atlético-MG leveled the score.
