Avaí goalkeeper César provoked Athletico fans after the draw in the 32nd round of Série B and caused a commotion that ended with two expulsions of the Furacão. After the final whistle, defender Carlos Terán and forward Steven Mendoza received red cards from referee Maguielson Lima Barbosa (DF), as did the goalkeeper of the Santa Catarina team.
"Coxa is bigger than you," goalkeeper César, who played for Coritiba and Londrina, said to the red-and-black fans. Watch the video:

Even without knowing what had been said, Mendonza went to get an explanation from the goalkeeper. The two faced off, and the Colombian ended up being knocked down. Terán then charged forward and tried to punch his opponent.
The altercation escalated into a heated argument between the players and members of both coaching staffs. However, the referee was summoned to the video assistant referee and reviewed the footage of the arguments. After reviewing the footage, the match official communicated Terán's expulsion to striker Alan Kardec, who acted as the red-and-black team's representative.
With the expulsions, Terán and Mendoza are certain to be absent for the classic against the leader Coritiba. The clash between the biggest rivals in the state takes place next Sunday (19), at 6:30 pm, at the Couto Pereira stadium.
Deplorable scenes at Arena da Baixada! 🫣 Avaí goalkeeper and former Coritiba player, César, provoked the Athletico fans at the end of the match: "Coxa is bigger than you."

In seventh place, Athletico has 49 points, three behind fourth-place Goiás. However, Chapecoense and Remo (both with 51 points) still stand between the red-and-black team and the group of top-place teams that guarantees promotion to the Brazilian soccer elite.
However, Furacão has gone three games without a win. After a seven-game winning streak, the record for a winning streak in this season's Segunda Division, the team led by coach Odair Hellmann is once again experiencing a turbulent period.
