The Brazilian soccer squad has experienced difficulty. This week, the Selecao appeared to be in a state of change, drawing 1-1 with the United States in preparation for the Copa America. The result irritated Brazilian soccer icon Ronaldinho, who had invested heavily in the team.
Ronaldinho said that the Brazilian squad lacked heart and that he did not want to see them compete in the Copa America following their performance against the USMNT. Raphinha was offended by his statements and accused the legend of hypocrisy.
According to Essentially Sports, during the Brazil football team press conference, Raphinha stated, “Ronaldinho says that he will not watch the Brazilian national team. A few days ago, he was writing to Vinicius Junior and asking him to provide him with tickets so that he could come and watch the national team’s match.”
Meanwhile, many players in the Brazilian football team are not unhappy with what Ronaldinho has said. The Brazilian players all possess the necessary skills to overcome the loss, and the squad believes that the match against the USMNT was only a temporary setback.
Ronaldinho's statement got a lot of hate
The Brazilian superstar caught everyone off guard earlier tonight when he criticised the team's performance on social media. Ronaldinho used his Instagram account to post a lengthy statement criticising the Selecao. The former Barcelona player believes his national side lacks the motivation and desire to perform for his country.
Ronaldinho has every right to remark on Brazil's performance, but claiming that Brazilian players do not want to contend for the title is a stretch. Brazil has long been regarded as one of the world's most passionate teams, and the players will be eager to prove their former hero wrong when they face Costa Rica in their opening Copa America encounter.
