The STJD upheld a three-match suspension for Carrascal after his expulsion in Palmeiras' win over Flamengo in the Brasileirão. With the decision, the midfielder will miss games against Chapecoense and São Paulo after the World Cup. He had already served the first match of the suspension against Coritiba, before the break in the calendar. The STJD's decision was considered fair by many Flamengo fans, who believe that Carrascal deserved a harsher punishment. The midfielder may still try to appeal the decision, but for now, he will miss more important games for Flamengo. The team is in a good phase and needs all healthy players to continue fighting for the Brasileirão title.
