And the derby in Matchday 27 of the Brasileirão has already seen a red card based on the "Vini Jr. Law."
Breno Lopes in the spotlight 🟥
Coritiba had a free kick late in the first half.
Then Breno Lopes went up to center-back Arthur Dias and covered his mouth with his right hand during a confrontation.
VAR official Rodrigo Nunes de Sá called referee Wagner do Nascimento Magalhães over to the monitor.
And he came back with a red card, leaving Coxa a man down.
FIFA introduced the "Vini Jr. Law" after the Real Madrid forward was targeted with insults by Prestianni, a Benfica player, during a Champions League match.
On that occasion, the Argentine player covered his mouth with his shirt to insult the Brazilian.
The rule came into effect at the World Cup.
The first player sent off in this Brasileirão under the "Vini Jr. Law" was Botafogo's Arthur Cabral, after an argument with Vitória coach Jair Ventura.
After Breno Lopes was sent off, Josué hit the crossbar with the free kick.
And Tiago Cóser pulled one back for Coxa by pouncing on the rebound almost by surprise.
