Brazilian sports justice disciplinary rulings
Overview
The Superior Tribunal de Justiça Desportiva (STJD) issued acquittals for Flamengo midfielder Erick Pulgar and Fluminense president Mattheus Montenegro following disciplinary complaints related to a ‘Fla-Flu’ derby.
Pulgar was cleared of charges regarding a violent play against Rodrigo Castillo, with the tribunal deciding that the on-field yellow card should be respected under the principle of minimum intervention. Montenegro was acquitted of charges for conduct contrary to sports ethics after he publicly criticized officiating as ‘garbage’ and ‘crap’.
These rulings have prompted scrutiny from Palmeiras management regarding the consistency of STJD criteria. Additionally, the tribunal converted a potential suspension for Internacional assistant coach Pablo Fernández into a warning, classifying his complaints against referees as low-severity.
