After being felled by a Cruzeiro player, Luis Suárez tried and failed to convince the referee that a free-kick should be given. Suárez removed his right shoe to show the damage, to no avail, with the referee awarding a throw-in to Cruzeiro. While the referee didn’t rise to the bait, Cruzeiro’s Marlon did by throwing Suárez’s boot away, earning himself a yellow card and provoking a protest by the Uruguayan. Grêmio ultimately won 3-0, with a goal and an assistance by Suárez, moving up to third in the Brazilian league, with 36 points.
