🟥 Red cards during the match
The tense atmosphere on the pitch resulted in two red cards for the black-and-white side:
- André (34' of the 1st half): Referee Flávio Rodrigues de Souza sent off the midfielder after identifying an obscene gesture directed at Palmeiras midfielder Andreas Pereira.
- Matheuzinho (23' of the 2nd half): The full-back received a straight red after striking forward Flaco López in the face during the start of a scuffle.
🥊 Chaos behind the scenes
The controversies spilled off the field after the end of the match. Palmeiras claimed that young forward Luighi was assaulted on the way to the anti-doping test room.
On the other hand, Corinthians accused security personnel linked to their rival of assaulting Breno Bidon and Gabriel Paulista.
In the official match report, the referee said he only became aware of the "generalized turmoil" upon arriving at the dressing room.
The document states that a Corinthians security guard shoved Palmeiras player Luighi, but the referee stressed that he did not witness physical aggression between players from the two teams.
