The fan was contained by other Corinthians players and soon removed by security. The duel was not over yet, but it was in the final seconds.
Despite the episode, the goalkeeper left the field happy with the result and gave strong testimony about the recent call for the Brazilian team.
– I would even like to make an outburst, a slightly delicate situation: a short time ago, my wife was pregnant, then we lost our babies and it ended up stirring a little with my head. But I never let it show it to anyone, I never stopped working, performing my work, doing my best and today I can be summoned again to the selection, being able to start like this … So I will devote this match today to her, show her that I will never let her hand, not at that moment, and that in joy we will be together too – declared in an interview with Prime Video.
Carlos Ancelotti took advantage that the Brazilian team is already guaranteed at the 2026 World Cup to summon and learn more players of Brazilian football. The duels will be against Chile and Bolivia.
