Palmeiras midfielder banned, out of Copa do Brasil vs Santos

The midfielder Allan from Palmeiras was suspended on October 23 for two matches by the Superior Court of Sports Justice (STJD) due to his expulsion against Fluminense in the 2-1 victory on July 23.

The Academy Graduate was charged under Article 250:

Palmeiras' Appeal

Palmeiras filed an appeal with the STJD, which granted a suspensive effect, and Allan was allowed to play since then.

The Full Court judged the case again this Monday (10) and upheld the athlete's suspension, ruling him out of the game against Santos next Saturday (15).

Recall the Case

See what referee Ramon Abatti Abel reported in the match report on the occasion.

Match Report: Striking or attempting to strike an opponent with excessive force outside of the ball dispute – For hitting the opponent's head with the elbow, using excessive force, outside of the ball dispute. I inform that the athlete hit, number 02, Mr. Samuel Xavier Brito, did not require medical attention and continued normally in the match.

Recall the Expulsion of the Palmeiras Player

At 49 minutes of the second half, Allan initially received a yellow card after committing a foul on Samuel Xavier. However, the video referee team intervened, requesting a review of the play for possible excessive force. Thus, after consulting the monitor, referee Ramon Abatti Abel reviewed his decision and applied a direct red card to the Palmeiras player.

“He makes the additional movement, in passing he leaves the elbow. Abatti, Gilberto speaking. I suggest a review for the possible red card. After the Fluminense player kicks the ball, the player (Allan) comes in passing with speed, he makes the additional movement and hits the opponent's head with the elbow.”

During the review on the field-side monitor, the field referee confirms the change of decision.

“Excessive force use, can you show me at normal speed. Ok, elbow… I'll take out the yellow card and give the red, ok?” states Abatti Abel.

“Ok, I agree,” responds Gilberto.

12th Player

Considered one of the most versatile players in the group, Allan has been drawing attention in 2025. His versatility, highly valued by Abel Ferreira, is one of his main virtues, as he plays as an attacking midfielder, left winger, and even as a second midfielder, taking on more than one role since his professional debut.
