After Cruzeiro took a 1-0 lead in the away game against Mineiro, the home side’s mascot is said to have run up to one of the players and hindered him from cheering. According to the responsible football association, it is “necessary to apply pedagogical methods to stop similar practices in the future.”
Cruzeiro eventually won the match 2-1, after a goal in the 97th minute
