I don’t think the Brazilian team’s dancing on the court after scoring a goal was “disrespectful”.
After beating South Korea 4-1 in this World Cup, five-star Brazil seems to have found its happy, smooth and imaginative self in Qatar. After every goal, they danced the samba. But this behavior made some fans feel uncomfortable. Celebrating wantonly after taking a big lead seemed a bit disrespectful to their opponents.
Brazilian players probably didn’t expect that they would be scolded for dancing to celebrate a goal. In fact, whether it is a national team game or a club game, it is not uncommon for Brazilians to dance samba after scoring a goal. This is also part of Brazilian football culture. Judging from the performance after the game, the atmosphere between Brazil and South Korea is still relatively harmonious. Some people joked that Samba defeated Kpop 4:1.
Actually, it’s not just the Brazilian team. Various celebrations on the football field are themselves part of football culture. We appreciate football matches beyond the moments of scoring goals. Don’t we still remember Alan Schiller pointing one way to the sky after scoring a goal? Can we forget Messi's hands pointing to the sky? We can’t forget Spanish star Raul’s celebration of kissing the ring after scoring a goal. Is that an expression of love to his wife? Wolf King Totti's celebration of sucking his pacifier after scoring a goal was dedicated to his underage children.
There are also many stars whose celebrations after scoring goals are full of positive energy. I remember a piece of news. When a Brazilian star was visiting a young fan with leukemia, the young fan asked Neymar to perform a specific goal-scoring action for him after he scored. As promised, Neymar fulfilled the young fan's request after scoring. desire.
These all show that celebrations are also part of football culture. As long as there are no discriminatory actions against specific objects, we can accept it.
Of course, we can accept all kinds of comments and words made by fans of the losing team against the winning team when they are frustrated. But I think the reaction of these fans is the beauty of football. On the green field, there is not only victory or defeat, but also those athletes who work hard and keep running, no matter what the result is, they all deserve respect.
