Judge Paulo Cesar Zanovelli experienced some unusual moments during the first half of the derby between Atlético-MG and Cruzeiro this Wednesday (15).
He got confused and showed the wrong card in two different incidents in less than a minute.
At 27:56, Zanovelli showed a red card to Kaiki Bruno. He immediately corrected himself and showed the yellow card instead.
At 28:49, the referee again reached into the wrong pocket when pulling out the card and showed a red card to Kaio Jorge. Once again, he quickly realized his mistake and only gave a yellow card.
See below how the incidents unfolded:
