DOHA (Reuters) – Brazil international Vinicius Junior said on Thursday he would not stop dancing after scoring a goal as an expression of joy during his World Cup appearances in Qatar.
Brazil defeated South Korea 4-1 in the first round of the last tournament on the 5th, but Roy Keane, who played for Manchester United (Man U) in the English Premier League during his active career, said about the dance after scoring the goal , “It’s rude,” he said, sparking controversy.
“Some people certainly like to complain about other people’s happiness, and we Brazilians are cheerful people, so they are always angry,” said Vinicius in a press conference. “Goals are the most important thing in football. “It’s a moment of joy, and even more so in the World Cup. It’s a moment of joy that belongs not only to the players, but to the people as well.”
“We need to be calm and focused, because we have more people standing in front of us than we have against us,” he said.
