After Abatti Abel’s ban, Palmeiras winless in Brasileirão | OneFootball

Flamengo took the lead in the Brazilian Championship after the period

The Superior Court of Sports Justice (STJD) suspended referee Ramon Abatti Abel for 40 days after errors in favor of Palmeiras in the classic match against São Paulo. After that, the Palmeiras team dropped in performance and could no longer win in the Brasileirão.

Ramon Abatti Abel was suspended last Wednesday (19) due to errors in the 27th round of the Brazilian Championship. After that, Palmeiras drew with Vitória and Fluminense, watching Flamengo surge ahead in the national tournament leadership.

WHAT IS THE CONTEXT OF THE PERFORMANCE DROP?

São Paulo was leading Palmeiras 2-0 until Ramon Abatti Abel awarded a penalty to Palmeiras that did not occur. Thus, the team led by Abel Ferreira turned the match around, generated national repercussions, and continued in the fight for the title.

However, with the suspension of Ramon Abatti Abel last Wednesday (19), referees began to fear making mistakes. As a result, Palmeiras dropped in performance and drew the two matches they played, against Vitória and Fluminense.

According to the STJD, Ramon Abatti Abel, the match referee, and Estevam da Silva, who was the VAR, violated article 259 of the Brazilian Code of Sports Justice (CBJD). The code addresses the omission in complying with the rules of the match.

AND THE CONSEQUENCE FOR PALMEIRAS?

Without winning for two games, Palmeiras saw Flamengo surge ahead in the leadership of the Brazilian Championship. Last Saturday (22), the red-black team overcame Red Bull Bragantino 3-0 and reached 74 points, against 70 of the rivals.

WHEN DOES FLAMENGO PLAY?

Now, Flamengo can already be champion of the Brazilian Championship in the next round, in case of a combination of results. This is because, Mengo needs to beat Atlético-MG, at Arena MRV, on Tuesday (25), while Palmeiras cannot triumph against Grêmio. Finally, both games start at 9:30 PM (Brasília time).
