The goal was disallowed as Vinicius Junior was adjudged to have fouled Jack Hendry before passing Angus Gunn for the ball. Referee Cesar Ramos checked the pitchside monitor on VAR instructions and then ruled out the attempt. His verdict that the Real Madrid star had committed a foul on Hendry infuriated Vinicius and his Brazilian team-mates.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Despite Vinicius scoring his second goal shortly after, Brazil remain furious at the controversial decision. According to Brazilian publication Estadao, Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) president Samir Zaud has lodged a formal complaint directly with FIFA.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>The letter, addressed to Gianni Infantino, specifically requests that Ramos not be appointed as officiant for the remaining matches. The federation cited a &#8220;bad history&#8221; with Mexican officials dating back to 2018, when Brazil were controversially denied a penalty against Switzerland.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Although this decision did not ultimately affect the final result, it is clear that Brazil is trying to avoid being at the center of any more refereeing disputes. Cunha&#8217;s second-half goal against Scotland gave Brazil a decisive victory over Morocco on goal difference, securing them top spot in the group.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>After that, it has been decided that they will face Japan in the best of 32, and if they can overcome the knockout tie in the first match, either Ivory Coast or Norway will be waiting in the best of 16.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Ancelotti chose not to mention the incident after the final whistle, almost certainly because it ultimately proved unimportant. Instead, he praised Vinicius Junior, who scored four goals in this World Cup.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Ancelotti said of his left winger in particular: &#8220;Vini is in great form at the moment and the team is helping him a lot.&#8221; &#8220;He can play in different positions, inside or on the wing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m very happy to see Vinicius like this. I never doubted that he could reach this level. I didn&#8217;t discover Vinicius. He&#8217;s a top-class player, one of the best in the world.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/sport\/football\/2222478\/brazil-world-cup-fifa-complaint\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>However, the Brazilians remain dissatisfied with the ruling against them in the first half.
