Brazilian international Richarlison caused a bit of a stir in the Premier League at Nottingham Forest last weekend, when he showboated with Tottenham winning 2-0, by juggling the ball a few times in the 85th minute.
The ensuing furore from certain sections of the English media, pundits, and fans has been overwhelming, with some claiming that Richarlison should have been carded, not Brennan Johnson, or even that he deserved to get seriously injured.
In this video, HITC Sevens analyses that visceral reaction, what it says about British football culture, and the British / English psyche in general.
