Two fans of the Brazilian national team have achieved dubious notoriety online.
A video that has now been viewed more than a million times shows the autograph hunters rushing towards their idol Neymar just as he is getting off the team bus. The next moment they unintentionally grab his legs before the security can intervene. After the planned short-term transfer of the Copa America to Brazil, where Corona continues to rage, the Selecao is not lacking in excitement anyway.

But we want to give our opinion.”

Paulo”, had sparked a debate in the Seleção about participation in the Copa America – and on and provided a rarely shown unit next to the square. “If one speaks, all the players speak, with Tite, with the coaching staff. It has to be unanimous, all together,” Casemiro told TV Globo. − Dpa/sli
