Vinicius and Richarlison pretend a fight, in Argentina they fall for it and the Brazilians laugh at it on Instagram

Nerves tense in the Brazilian retreat? In Argentina they think so … instead it’s all a joke.

Vinicius, a season at the highest level, both for individual growth and for the results obtained. With Real Madrid he went in double figures, won La Liga and Champions League, was the author of the decisive goal in the final in Paris. In the national team he seems destined to take up Neymar’s legacy. In training, however, he became the protagonist of what seemed to be an altercation with Everton striker Richarlison.

FIGHT – Everything seemed calm in the retreat of the green-gold national team, engaged in a series of friendlies. The next is against Japan. As reported by TNT Sport, Richarlison and Vinicius first spoke, then provoked and finally … they moved on to the facts and then were immediately separated by the intervention of Neymar, Dani Alves and Paqueta before the situation degenerated.

DOUBTS – No one overseas had doubts despite the fact that relations between the two are also good considering that Richarlison was among the first to congratulate Vinicius on his victory against Liverpool. In Argentina, however, they are convinced of the opposite. And they argue that the Real Madrid player during training was not very tender towards the colleague who tells his version of the facts about him. “He told me that I am not a player capable of winning the Champions League, he also added that I am overrated and that Everton will be relegated next season. And I remained silent.”

JOKE – An episode that did not go unnoticed. To restore calm were the same players who, as increasingly often happens in football 2.0, have chosen to clarify what happened on social networks where in the meantime the images have gone viral. The Everton striker posted a smiley face on his Instagram profile next to the photo of the fight and other teammates like Neymar and Dani Alves also responded with amused emoticons. No clarification, therefore, also because there was no need to explain anything. As reported by O Globe, it was a locker room joke. Players get slapped in the head and ear when they make mistakes in training. No violence or creeping nervousness. Just a joke. And the Argentines fell for it in full …
