Raphinha sent off and furious after Brazil lose 3-2 to Japan
Brazil fell 3-2 to Japan and the Barcelona winger saw red in the 92nd minute for protesting. He blames repeated refereeing errors.
Raphinha was sent off in the 92nd minute for protesting during Brazil's 3-2 defeat to Japan, according to Fabrizio Romano. The Barcelona winger did not hide his anger. He said the team is still finding its way after the World Cup and that they played well, clearly better in the second half, but that it is hard to play when the referee is also against you. On his red card, he said it is hard to keep your composure after so many refereeing mistakes. He claims he tried several times to talk to the referee, who would not listen to him, and called that unacceptable. He admits Brazil have a lot to improve but insists the referee's decisions cannot be ignored.
