Paraná police ban Corinthians ultras from Arena da Baixada | OneFootball

Corinthians faces Athletico-PR on the night of this Wednesday, the 27th, in the first leg of the quarterfinals of the Copa do Brasil, starting at 9:30 PM (Brasília time). With tickets sold out by the alvinegra fans, organized supporters will not be able to attend the Arena da Baixada to support Timão.

This measure was taken by the Military Police of the State of Paraná. The institution based its decision on the bans imposed by the Paulista Football Federation (FPF) and the São Paulo Public Prosecutor's Office (MP-SP), but without having a court order prior to enforcement, according to Meu Timão.

Thus, the entry of shirts, banners, instruments, or other items linked to the clubs' organized supporter groups is prohibited – which include Gaviões da Fiel, Camisa 12, Fiel Macabra, Pavilhão 9, Estopim da Fiel, and Coringão Chopp.

These groups have been banned from entering stadiums throughout the state of São Paulo since April, due to the pyrotechnics used in the Paulistão final, when Timão defeated Palmeiras at Neo Química Arena. The FPF's decision came after a recommendation from the Public Prosecutor's Office.

A similar situation was experienced by the supporters in Ceará, in a match against the club of the same name. Since the punishment was announced, Corinthians' legal department has been trying to reverse the decision and allow the supporter groups to be present at all alvinegro matches.
