Overview
- Jacy, who scored for Coritiba, leapt over the advertising boards during a celebration Saturday and fell into an uncovered entrance to the players' tunnel before being helped by teammates and stadium staff.
- Match officials overturned the strike after a VAR review, so the celebrated goal did not stand despite the dramatic fall.
- Coritiba's medical team treated Jacy and he started the second half but was substituted early with ice on his ankle; a local broadcast (Cazé TV) reported the substitution was caused by the fall, a claim that has limited independent confirmation.
- The same game also included a separate, more serious incident when Chapecoense midfielder Max Alves was taken to intensive care with multiple rib fractures and had a chest drain inserted, according to match reports.
- The episode recalled a near-identical 2014 fall at Couto Pereira, prompted staff to pull the retractable tunnel cover back into place after the incident, and has renewed scrutiny of on-pitch infrastructure and player safety at the stadium.
