Maranhão and ABC played yesterday in the first round of the Copa do Nordeste.
In the 49th minute of the second half, with Maranhão leading ABC 2-1, ABC’s Walfrido tried to shoot but was blocked by the Maranhão defense, and the ball fell to goalkeeper Moisés. Happy with his keeper’s save, Maranhão’s Yann Baldez celebrated by giving the ball a few “pats” while it was still in Moisés’s arms. Referee Bruno Nogueira Prado didn’t hesitate and awarded a penalty to ABC.

Moisés saved Parraguez’s penalty, but the Chilean striker scored on the rebound to tie the game 2-2.
What a blunder! Only in Brazil.
