- Football star Vinicius Jr laughed out of shock
LONDON: The press officer of the Brazilian national team shocked journalists when he picked up a cat that had interrupted footballer Vinicius Jr’s press conference on Wednesday and threw it on the floor.
The stray was caught on camera jumping onto the table in front of the unnamed Brazil media officer while the Real Madrid forward, 22, was answering questions ahead of the World Cup clash with Croatia.
The press officer picked up the cat with both hands and disposed of it ruthlessly, shocking journalists, while the football star froze and then laughed, seemingly out of astonishment.
The video of Brazil’s press officer mistreating the cat went viral, and fans on social media criticized his action, with one hoping “Brazil don't win the World Cup now."
