Raniele picks up third yellow, ruled out for Corinthians v Fluminense | OneFootball

Coach Dorival Júnior has a setback at Corinthians for the match against Fluminense, valid for the ninth round of the Brazilian Championship. Midfielder Raniele received his third yellow card this Sunday, in the 1-1 draw against Flamengo, and will have to serve a suspension.

Raniele was penalized with a yellow card at 41 minutes of the second half. Referee Rodrigo José Pereira de Lima warned Corinthians' number 14 for a hard foul on Wallace Yan near the midfield circle.

Without Raniele, therefore, Timão returns to the field only after the FIFA date. The alvinegra team visits Fluminense on the next April 1st, starting at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at Maracanã, in Rio de Janeiro (RJ).

The Corinthians technical staff has some options in the sector to replace Raniele. Allan, Charles, and Matheus Pereira appear as alternatives to fill the midfielder's absence.

Raniele has played 14 matches with the alvinegra jersey this season, but has not yet contributed with goals or assists.

Standings Situation

The result was not positive for either team. Corinthians added another draw and dropped to 11th place, with 10 points. Timão also saw the winless streak increase, reaching the seventh consecutive game without a victory — two losses and five draws in this stretch.
