Lucas Paquetá Faces Criticism After Missing Crucial Penalty

In the second half, with Brazil and Tunisia tied, Lucas Paquetá entered the field and had the chance to secure victory for the Seleção. Designated to take the penalty won by Vitor Roque, the former Lyon player ultimately missed. This miss prompted strong reactions from Brazilian supporters who expressed their frustration towards the 28-year-old player.

On social media, many criticized Carlo Ancelotti’s decision to let the Brazilian midfielder take the penalty, especially considering Estevao, who performed well on the right flank, had successfully converted the first penalty at the end of the first half. Fans of the Auriverde were also frustrated with the player’s questionable run-up to the kick.
