The steering wheel Raniele received his third yellow card this Saturday (04), at Corinthians goalless draw with Fortalezaat Neo Química Arena, at Brazilian championship.
The athlete, therefore, is absent from the team for the game against the Flamengoin the next round of the competition.
The player made a foul in the 44th minute of the first half, on Pedro Augusto, and received the card. The steering wheel was hanging and, upon being warned, he would have to serve a suspension in the following round.
António Oliveira will have a headache replacing Raniele, Timão’s absolute starter this season.
The options for the position in the current squad are: Fausto Vera and Paulinho, who has played as a central midfielder throughout his career.
The coach can still change the team’s scheme, placing three defenders and leaving Breno Bidon (Fausto Vera or Paulinho) and Rodrigo Garro in midfield.
