STJD hands Corinthians one-game stadium ban after derby incidents, three players suspended | OneFootball

Corinthians have been handed a one-match stadium ban and fined R$ 112,000 after the STJD ruled on incidents in Sunday’s derby against Palmeiras at Neo Química Arena. Three players also received suspensions.

According to Meu Timao, the 3rd Disciplinary Commission’s decisions apply across national competitions.

The club were cited for five matters, a drone carrying a plush pig, a stoppage caused by a kite line, late return for the second half, racist abuse aimed at Palmeiras goalkeeper Carlos Miguel by a fan, and a post-match melee.

Corinthians lost one home match for the racist incident, which is under investigation by the authorities with the club assisting identification, and were fined R$ 80,000. Further fines were R$ 2,000 for delays, R$ 10,000 for the drone, and R$ 20,000 for the altercation.

Midfielder André received a one-match ban for an obscene gesture. Right-back Matheuzinho got four games for striking Flaco López in the face. Goalkeeper Hugo Souza was suspended for two matches for insulting the referee in a post-game interview, while Breno Bidon was cleared.

Under CBF competition rules, because the judgement came before his automatic suspension due on Saturday at Vitória, André is expected to miss an additional game.

Goalkeeping coach Luiz Fernando dos Santos was acquitted. Palmeiras were fined R$ 20,000 for the post-whistle confrontation.

Corinthians visit Vitória at Barradão on Saturday at 20:00 in the 12th round of the Campeonato Brasileiro.
