Overview
- CBF says FIFA authorized release of audio and video from plays without on-field monitor review, with publication promised within 24 hours of matches.
- The request came after São Paulo sought recordings for five disputed moments from the 3-2 loss to Palmeiras at Morumbi, including a penalty claim on Gonzalo Tapia and a possible red for Andreas Pereira.
- Referee Ramon Abatti Abel and VAR official Ilbert Estevam da Silva were temporarily removed for training and evaluation after the game.
- The STJD Prosecutor's Office filed charges against the referee and VAR, São Paulo executives Carlos Belmonte and Rui Costa, and Palmeiras forward Vitor Roque, initiating disciplinary proceedings.
- Operational details such as retroactive disclosure and technical procedures remain unsettled, while federal deputy Júlio Lopes pressed for audio release and sought to summon the VAR official to Congress.
