‘These guys are losers’: Brazil berated back home after defeat by Norway

Carlo Ancelotti and his players have been lambasted for their ‘shameful’ and ‘embarrassing’ World Cup exit afnews.co.za

The wait for the hexa – the record-extending sixth World Cup – continues. Brazil’s 2-1 loss to Norway in the last 16 of the World Cup on Sunday means they have gone six tournaments in a row without being crowned champions. Some in Brazil are calling it the reverse hexa.

As you would expect, the reaction back home has been scathing. Neto, the former international who is now a pundit on Radio Bandeirantes, laid into the current crop of players. “It’s a generation that won fuck all,” he said. “There are six players who won one Copa América and that’s it. It was embarrassing from the beginning and everything that happened before that game. It was a shameful campaign and these guys are losers. It’s a generation of lies.”

El voraz Haaland se queda sin voz tras su doblete a Brasil y ya se sienta en la mesa de Messi y Mbappé en este Mundial

Tenido por un témpano que ni siente ni padece, Erling Haaland, el contundente verdugo de Brasil se quedó sin voz en la zona mixta del estadio MetLife de Nueva Jersey/Nueva York. Los dos goles que firmó clasificaron a Noruega por primera vez en su historia para los cuartos de final de una Copa del Mundo. “No suelo quedarme sin palabras a menudo, pero justo ahora me he quedado sin palabras. Me costaba creer que pudiera llegar a este nivel en términos de logros en mi vida, pero me he demostrado a mí mismo que es posible. Así que fue una sensación extraña ganarle a Brasil de esa manera. Me costó un poco creerlo, pero lo logramos y es totalmente increíble, la verdad”, confesó recién duchado y en chanclas el voraz atacante noruego, que se ha encaramado a lo más alto de la tabla de goleadores con siete tantos, los mismos que Lionel Messi y Kylian Mbappé.
