At the Parc des Princes
Big atmosphere at the Parc des Princes on Tuesday, during Brazil-Tunisia (5-1).
A few false notes too... Like this banana of shame thrown on the lawn while Richarlison was celebrating his goal.
A gesture from another time as Thiago Silva moved after the match.
“
I saw the video in the locker room.
That's a shame.
It's hard to see pictures like that.
We still see this kind of thing... Unfortunately, we cannot change people's mentality.
I hope people will realize that it doesn't work.
It's the past.
Now we have to change.
Unfortunately, some people continue with this mentality
”, regretted the former defender of PSG, captain of the Seleçao on Tuesday evening.
Tunisian fans also saw fit to whistle the Brazilian anthem before the match.
Which was not to the taste of Marquinhos, who we saw nodding his head in spite on the images of

.
Thiago Silva, he was not particularly offended.
Asked about the subject, he rather returned to the episode of the banana.
“
It's normal, in an atmosphere like that, you support your selection.
But I was sad when the banana was thrown... It makes me sad.
It's not football.
Football, you support your team.
After, on the ground, we give the maximum for his selection.
But this kind of gesture, this kind of image, it's not good for football
“, Lamented the Chelsea player, who spent eight seasons in Parisian colors, from 2012 to 2020. The Brazilian federation (CBF) denounced an act of “racism”.
