The referee classified Danilo's offense as serious foul play, justifying the straight red card. On the other hand, in the case of Wallace Yan, besides his conduct on the field, the match report also recorded protests after the expulsion.

WHAT DOES THE FULL MATCH REPORT SAY?

Danilo: "Serious foul play. I expelled the said athlete for hitting his opponent's face with a kick in the ball dispute."

Wallace Yan:

"Strike an opponent recklessly in the ball dispute. I expelled the athlete in question for double warning after receiving the second yellow for hitting his opponent's face with his arm recklessly in the ball dispute. This same athlete had received his first yellow card at the 29' of the 2nd half for disapproving of the referee's decisions.

After receiving the red card, he vehemently complained to the match referee and upon leaving the field he kicked the ball that was on the sideline over the cone towards the home team's fans.

After this, he directed himself to the fourth referee of the match shouting the following words: 'You are ruining football, there's no reason to expel me, I did nothing!'"

With the result, Flamengo remained with 55 points and dropped to the second position. On the other hand, Palmeiras took the lead by defeating São Paulo and reaching the same number of points, but with one more victory.

The red-black team returns to the field on October 15, at 7:30 pm (Brasília time), against Botafogo, at Nilton Santos Stadium, for the 28th round of the Brasileirão. In short, the match takes place after the FIFA date.
