A fan who made racist gestures in a game for the Brasileirão is banned from going to Athletico-PR games and had to pay 3,400 reais in basic baskets. the team from Paraná was acquitted for what happened in the clash against Flamengo since it collaborated with the police by providing images from the security cameras of its stadium and the man did not support his club, but São Paulo.
This Wednesday (19) Athletico-PR was acquitted in second instance by the STJD (Supreme Court of Sports Justice). The accusation made against the club referred to article 243-G of the Brazilian Code of Sports Justice (CBJD), which condemns any discriminatory, contemptuous or outrageous act related to various forms of prejudice, including ethnic-racial prejudice. A fan seen with the Athletico fans was filmed making racist gestures towards the Mengão fans. He was identified by the security cameras at the stadium in Curitiba and the footage was handed over to the police the next day.
The Paraná Police and the STJD had access to the images relating to the prosecution, but also to the entire journey of the fan: from his entry into the stadium to his path through the stands. Thus, it was possible to identify his identity and that of his two friends who accompanied him.
Even with his identity preserved, 'ge' managed to find out that it was discovered that he was not even an athletic fan. On his social networks there were publications in favor of São Paulo. He is not from Paraná and that was his first time at the stadium.
In the judgment of the STJD, Athletico's defense reported that the club reached an administrative punishment agreement with the man. This means that he had to pay five basic baskets - a total of R$ 3,400 - and is prohibited for 18 months from going to any event related to the club and even from purchasing. This includes: using team tickets, services and products.

Estudiantes is already in Rio de Janeiro for the first leg of the Copa Libertadores quarterfinals against Flamengo , scheduled for Thursday (18), at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã. The Argentine team trained at Fluminense's facilities , preparing for the decisive duel.
Coach Eduardo Domínguez tested a more conservative formation, including an extra defensive midfielder in midfield, as a strategy to contain Flamengo's attacks. According to Radio Província 1270 in La Plata, the change could result in only one striker on the field , demonstrating a more solid defensive posture.
Estudiantes ' likely lineup for the clash includes: Muslera; Gómez, Nuñez, Rodríguez, Arzamendia; Ascacibar, Piovi, Amondarain, Medina, Tiago Palacios; Carrillo.
It's not yet clear whether Piovi will play as an extra midfielder or be replaced by Castro . Amondarain, despite being an attacking midfielder, could drop back and act as a third midfielder, depending on Domínguez's strategy in recent training sessions.
With the prospect of a more closed Argentine team, Flamengo, under the command of Filipe Luís, will have to work hard to break down Estudiantes' defense and seek a positive result in the first leg of the Libertadores quarterfinals.
