Brazil wore all black in the first half of their 4-1 friendly win over Guinea at the RCDE Stadium in Barcelona, Spain. Joelinton, Rodrygo, Militao and Vinicius scored the goals. Guirassy scored a consolation goal for Guinea in the 36th minute.
The Brazilian team wore all-black for the first time in history.
The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) launched the campaign: "With racism, no match", to fight against racism after consecutive incidents with striker Vinicius while playing for Real Madrid in the last La Liga season. The incident became especially serious in the match Real Madrid lost 0-1 to Valencia on May 21, the Brazilian striker was mocked by Valencia fans throughout the match and had many racist acts that caused pain and reactions in public opinion.
In support of Vinicius and against racism, the Brazilian team took to the field wearing all black for the first time in their history. They also took a knee at the start of the match as an anti-racism gesture, as is often done in Premier League matches.
After the match with Guinea, in the next match against Senegal in Lisbon, Portugal in the early morning of June 21, the Brazilian team continued to play in the first half in black uniforms.
