Renato Gaúcho pulls a player and gets booked

There were no goals in the match between Fortaleza and Gremio, although there was a passage of play that has travelled through Brazil and on social media. Renato Gaúcho ended up with a yellow card.

The Gremio manager had nothing else to do but pull Carlinhos, who in the 18th minute entered the technical area to avoid the ball going out the park.

So Renato Gaúcho, being just a few centimetres away, stopped him and the player called for the yellow card. The ball hadn't gone out, so in the end, it was a foul.

The Gremio manager got booked for becoming a player for a second and stopping a passage of play.
