In Brazil's match against Haiti at the 2026 World Cup, Raphinha once again found himself in the spotlight—this time, not just for his performance.
Details: In the 39th minute, Raphinha picked up an injury, forcing Carlo Ancelotti to make an early substitution. Rayan came on to replace him.
Before the injury, the winger had opportunities to score but failed to convert his chances. Social media was abuzz with talk of Raphinha missing two clear goals, followed by an emotional reaction to being subbed off.
Judging by the video, the player was visibly upset about not being able to continue the match. This episode was especially bitter for him amid ongoing debates about his lack of goals at World Cup tournaments.
By the time Raphinha left the pitch, Brazil was already leading Haiti 2-0, thanks to a brace from Matheus Cunha.
Recall: Previously, Raphinha had a goal disallowed against Haiti due to offside after a slick attacking move from Brazil.
