This Wednesday, Grêmio officially submitted an urgent request for review to the president of the Superior Court of Sports Justice (STJD), Dr. Luis Otávio Veríssimo Teixeira, regarding the preliminary injunction presented by the court's Prosecutor's Office on October 7th.

On that occasion, the Prosecutor's Office accepted the club's argument to suspend the effects of the cards given to defender Walter Kannemann (red) and full-back Marlon Rodrigues Xavier (3rd yellow) during the match against Bragantino, held on October 4th, for the Brasileirão.

Grêmio's request emphasizes that the measure is essential to ensure that the athletes can be automatically eligible to play in the match this Thursday at Arena do Grêmio against São Paulo, for the 28th round of the national competition. The match kicks off at 7 PM (Brasília time).
