🤯 Série B match in Bahia: red cards after biting incident | OneFootball

The first semi-final of the Serie B of the Baiano Championship took place this Saturday (5), at the Joia da Princesa Stadium.

And it was marked by a BITE that resulted in two expulsions in the classic of Feira de Santana.

Just in the first few minutes of Fluminense de Feira versus Bahia de Feira, João Grilo, number 10 of the Tricolor, bit an opponent, Patrick Carvalho, while he was contesting the ball on the side.

This left the number 25 player outraged.

The decision of referee Bruno Pereira Vasconcelos was to expel both athletes.

Bahia opened the scoring still in the first, at 55', with Wallace. But saw the host Fluminense seek the tie with Luan, at ten of the final stage.

The duel also had one more red for each side.

The return match will be next Saturday (12), at the Arena Cajueiro.

The other semi involves Galícia and Itabuna, who will have their first duel - with Itabuna hosting - this Sunday (6).

The two finalists will guarantee access to the elite of the Baiano.

Bahia de Feira and Itabuna were relegated last year. The Flu de Feira fell in 2021. And Galícia in 2017.

Titles in the elite  🏆

Only Itabuna does not have a win in the local first division.

Bahia de Feira took its only trophy in 2011, by beating Vitória.

Flu de Feira has two (1963 and 1969). And Galícia boasts five (1937, 1941, 1942, 1943 and 1968).
