Shortly after opening the scoring against Santa Cruz, Ituano ended with the expulsion of Paulinho Dias. The midfielder got the first yellow at 18 minutes and ended up taking the second, at 39, and being sent off. The two movements were the subject of a complaint by Vinicius Bergantin’s coach, who considered the expulsion unfair and crucial for the defeat.
The victory left Santa Cruz tied with Ituano in the standings, both with four points, followed by Vila Nova and Brusque, who are still facing this day for Group C of the home run that defines the access to the Brazilian’s Serie B.
Ituano and Santa Cruz will meet again next Sunday, at 6 pm, at the Arruda stadium in Recife, at the opening of the home run. The ge follows the game in Real time.
