What was that? Vini Jr's disallowed goal goes viral 🎥

Vini Jr. had even celebrated his second goal against Scotland this Wednesday (24).

But then the video referee called Mexican official César Ramos over to the monitor, and everything changed.

Brazil is leading the clash in the third and final round of Group C of the FIFA World Cup thanks precisely to the number 7.

But it is still lamenting the controversial decision. 

Was it a foul?

The incident in question happened in the 22nd minute.

Vini Jr. stole the ball from Hendry and beat Gunn for the second time at Hard Rock Stadium.

In charge of the on-field officiating, César Ramos was called to the monitor to review a possible foul by the Brazilian.

And he ended up agreeing with the VAR’s assessment.

The replays of the incident, however, made the decision even more controversial.

The footage showed Vini putting his left foot in front of Hendry, who then caught the number 7 with his right foot. 

Even Scotland’s own players did not complain about the alleged foul at first.

The final decision caused widespread outrage. Even Neymar went over to the fourth official to complain.

And, of course, social media did not “forgive” it.
