Vinicius Junior, one of the leaders of the Brazilian national team, summarized the team's performance at the 2024 Copa America.
"The end of the Copa America and time to think, to learn how to cope with defeats. The feeling of disappointment is taking over again. I received two yellow cards that could have been avoided. I watched the elimination from the sidelines. But this time it was my fault. I apologize for that. I know how to listen to criticism, and the toughest, believe me, comes from within.
Fortunately, my adventure with the national team is just beginning. Together with my teammates, I will have the opportunity to bring Brazil back to the place it deserves. We will return to the top!" Vinicius wrote on Instagram.
It will be recalled that Vinicius was unable to play in the 1/4 finals match against Uruguay (0:0, penalties 2:4) due to too many yellow cards.
