All-female team to referee São Paulo v Palmeiras semi-final | OneFootball

Targeted by sexist attacks from some Bragantino players in the quarterfinals, Daiane Muniz will be the referee for the semifinal match of the São Paulo State Championship between São Paulo and Palmeiras, at 8:30 PM (Brasília time) on Sunday (1/3), in Barueri (SP).

This will be the third consecutive match of the State Championship involving São Paulo that Daiane will be part of. Besides officiating the victory over the opponent from Bragança Paulista (SP), she was responsible for the VAR in the last round of the classification phase, against Ponte Preta, away from home.

Against Bragantino, despite the exaggerated and prejudiced complaints from some Bragantino players, Daiane's performance was praised by many refereeing experts. Against São Paulo, so to speak, she failed to call a supposed penalty on Lucas Ramon in the first half and expelled Alan Franco in injury time for a foul intended to stop the rival's attack. The player already had a yellow card.

For those opposed to the presence of women in refereeing men's football matches, Sunday's game will be a true source of complaints.

This is because the São Paulo Football Federation has appointed only women for the field refereeing of the classic. Check out the complete lineup for the match below:
