CONMEBOL responds to Depay incident
CONMEBOL, the South American football federation, has taken disciplinary action against Corinthians forward Memphis Depay following an offensive gesture directed at Estudiantes de La Plata fans during the Copa Libertadores quarter-final match, which ended in a 1-1 draw. The incident occurred during the Argentine team's match on September 9, 2026, when Depay made an inappropriate gesture while celebrating his equalizing goal, prompting jeers from the crowd and a complaint from the Argentine club. CONMEBOL is applying two clauses from its disciplinary regulations related to unsportsmanlike conduct and abuse. Depay is permitted to participate in the upcoming second leg match before the deadline for submitting a defense, which is set for September 17, as the club continues to defend the player pending the final decision.
