On that occasion, Gustavo Marques said that referee Daiane Muniz should not "officiate a game of this magnitude," referring to the quarterfinal match of the Paulistão.
This Monday (23), RB Bragantino stated that Gustavo Marques will receive a fine amounting to 50% of his total earnings.
In addition, the defender will not be included in the squad for the match against Athletico, at 7:00 PM on Wednesday (25), at Cícero de Souza.
Besides the punishment imposed by the club, Gustavo Marques may also be punished by the Sports Justice system.
