Referee Deborah Cecília detailed in the summary of the match between Náutico and Retrô the attempted aggression by Timbu midfielder Jean Carlos this afternoon (30)during the final of the Pernambuco Championship.
In the bid that culminated in the expulsion, Jean Carlos hit Yuri Bigode, who was marking him, with his arm in the 19th minute of the first half. The foul occurred without the ball, and VAR called the referee, who was far from the play, to review. She chose to show the red card straight to the player.
“After I presented the direct red card, the expelled player started towards me in an attempt to attack me, being restrained by the assistant referee Clóvis Amaral, and by his teammates”, detailed Deborah.
Also according to the documentation published by the Pernambuco Federation of Football (FPF), even after the card and the episode that shocked the fans present, the athlete “relucted to leave the field of play, being removed by his own teammates”.
O UOL Esporte contacted the team’s press office to ask what would be done in relation to the player’s attitude, but received no response. The space remains open for clarification.
Náutico won the Pernambuco Championship on penalties. The match took place this Saturday (30) at Arena de Pernambuco. Alvirrubro made it 1-0, taking the match to penalties, as the first leg ended with the victory of Retrô also by 1-0.
