On July 20, two-time World Cup champion defender Jorginho criticized the current state of the Brazilian national team at a gathering. His remarks were filmed by someone present and uploaded to social media.
The legendary Brazilian player stated, “The current Brazilian national team, as soon as the Copa America ended, the players were already posting pictures from Ibiza (a popular vacation island) on social media, as if nothing had happened.”
In this year’s Copa America, Brazil faced Uruguay in the quarterfinals and ultimately lost on penalties, ending their run in the quarter-finals. Just a few days after the Copa America, Brazil’s top forward Vinicius was seen partying hard on Ibiza to celebrate his 24th birthday, which upset some fans.
