(FILES) Corinthians' Dutch forward #10 Memphis Depay grabs the ball during the Copa Sudamericana group stage football match between Brazil's Corinthians and Colombia's America de Cali at the Neo Quimica Arena stadium in Sao Paulo, Brazil on May 6, 2025. Is standing on the ball in the middle of a match an unsportsmanlike gesture or a trademark move? The "paradinha" has reignited the long-standing debate in South America between those who advocate for penalizing provocative moves and those who caution against banning them, arguing that such a ban undermines the fundamental nature of football. The controversial move made a comeback this April 2026. The move, previously performed by Yeferson Soteldo of Santos and Memphis Depay of Corinthians, led to a change in refereeing rules in Argentina, as had already happened in Brazil and Colombia.
