Insults also allegedly occurred when the record-breaking world champion played against Guinea (4-1) in Barcelona. Outside striker Vinicius Junior was again involved, who complained after the game about a racist incident against his friend and adviser Felipe Silveira.

“While I was playing and getting emotional in the historic black jersey, my friend was humiliated and mocked at the stadium entrance. Service was sad. To make everything public, I ask those responsible: Where are the recordings from the surveillance cameras?’, the Real Madrid striker wrote on Twitter.

At the entrance check, a security guard reportedly said to Felipe Silveira: “Hands up, this is my weapon for you”, while taking a banana out of his pocket. This is evident from the official complaint of the 27-year-old, which was published by the media company Globo. Silveira had previously called the police. Both the security company and the employee deny the allegations.

In the past, Vinicius himself had repeatedly been the target of racist hostilities in his adopted country of Spain. He himself had therefore suggested that Brazil would only set a good example in their second international match after the World Cup disappointment and would play against Guinea in black jerseys in the first half.

On the field, Joelinton (27′), Rodrygo (30′), Eder Militao (47′) and Vinicius Junior (88′, penalty kick) scored the goals for the five-time world champion, who already lost to Croatia in the final. quarterfinals in Qatar. For the second time after the 1-2 draw at the World Cup, number four Morocco, interim coach Ramon Menezes took care of the team. Real coach Carlo Ancelotti is still the preferred candidate to succeed head coach Tite. (AFP)
