Brazil Star Richarlison Teaches Ronaldo “Pigeon Dance” After FIFA World Cup Quarter-final Entry
Brazil hit top gear with Neymar back in the line-up to brush aside South Korea 4-1 on Monday and ease into the quarter-finals of the World Cup where they will face Croatia. Neymar had been sidelined for two matches with a sprained ankle but with the world’s most expensive player restored to their side, Brazil’s yellow shirts poured forward at Stadium 974.
Vinicius Junior opened the scoring inside seven minutes before Neymar added another from the penalty spot to move to 76 goals for his country, leaving him just one away from equalling Pele’s all-time record tally. The ailing Pele watched from his hospital bed in Sao Paulo where the 82-year-old was admitted last Tuesday amid ongoing treatment for colon cancer.
He will have enjoyed Richarlison’s dazzling goal to make it 3-0 before Lucas Paqueta added another before half-time, all celebrated with dance routines as Brazil’s supporters roared their approval.
After the goal, Richarlison celebrated by doing the “pigeon dance” as his teammates and coach Tite also joined in. Later, in a video released by FIFA, the Brazil star could be seen teaching the moves to former Brazil star and 2002 World Cup winner Ronaldo.
