Palmeiras midfielder reported to STJD after red card against Fluminense | OneFootball

The young Allan from Palmeiras was reported by the STJD (Superior Court of Sports Justice) for his expulsion in the match against Fluminense. The duel took place on July 23, during the 16th round of the Brazilian Championship, at Maracanã.

Allan was expelled against Fluminense in injury time, at 53 minutes of the second half. The midfielder attempted to steal the ball and hit Samuel Xavier's face with an elbow. After a VAR review, referee Ramon Abatti Abel showed the red card to the player.

The trial of the midfielder's case is scheduled for next Thursday (23rd). Allan was charged by the prosecution based on article 254 of the CBJD (Brazilian Sports Justice Code), which refers to “committing a violent play.”

The punishment outlined in the article provides for a suspension of one to six games. Allan, it is worth remembering, served an automatic suspension in the match against Grêmio, valid for the 17th round of Serie A.

With the trial scheduled only for next Thursday, Allan will be available to coach Abel Ferreira for the important match against Flamengo, scheduled for 4 PM (Brasília time) this Sunday, for the 29th round of the Brasileirão, at Maracanã.
