Richarlison: Everton ace called FIFA president 'baldie' after winning Olympic gold

Last summer, Brazil won the gold medal in men’s football at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.

The South American nation repeated the feat they achieved on home soil five years earlier by beating Spain 2-1 in the final.

It was a hard-fought victory for Brazil. Mikel Oyarzabal’s second half strike cancelled out Matheus Cunha’s opener and took the match to extra-time.

And it was the Selecao who struck the decisive blow in the additional 30 minutes of play, former Barcelona winger Malcom netting the all important goal.

It was a memorable night for Brazil inside Yokohama’s International Stadium, despite the fact there were no fans in attendance due to Covid-19 restrictions.

But it wasn’t any of the match action that went viral in the aftermath.

From under his mask, he could he heard saying: “Next year it will be in Qatar, baldie.”

Yes, it really did happen…
