In a recent friendly match between Brazil and England at Wembley Stadium, Brazil secured a 1-0 victory, marking the first time in four years that England had been defeated at their home turf.
The Exchange of Shirts
During the post-match proceedings, Jude Bellingham, an English player, was spotted leaving the England dressing room with several shirts in hand, intending to exchange them with his Real Madrid counterparts. Among the shirts he carried was Vinicius Jr’s number 7.
In a playful moment, Bellingham encountered Vinicius Jr. outside the dressing room and jokingly remarked, “No quiero,” which translates to ‘I don’t want it’ in English, while holding Vinicius Jr’s shirt.
Friendly Banter Among Friends
Bellingham proceeded to exchange shirts with Vinicius Jr., swapping his own number 10 shirt with Vinicius Jr., before revealing that another shirt he carried was meant for their mutual friend from Madrid, Rodrygo.
Recognition for Declan Rice
Notably, one of the shirts Bellingham carried was intended for Declan Rice, emphasizing the high regard in which the Arsenal player is held beyond the confines of the Premier League. This gesture highlights the camaraderie and mutual respect shared among players from different teams and nations in the world of football.
