Goalkeeper Suspended After Using Phone During Match To Order Uber

A Brazilian goalkeeper who used his mobile phone during a match as a PR stunt in collaboration with Uber has been suspended for acting against the “ethics of the sport”.  Atletico Paranaense goalkeeper Santos was filmed using his mobile phone in a match against Atletico Minero on May 13.

Santos, 28, has now been suspended for one match by the Superior Tribunal of Sports Justice in Brazil.

The suspension is down to a rule in which players are banned from “any conduct contrary to discipline or sporting ethics not typified by other rules of the code”.

Atletico Paranaense were fined £10,000 for helping to organise the PR stunt.

The initiative was planned by the club and ride-sharing company Uber as part of a campaign to increase awareness of the dangers of driving whist using a mobile phone
