On Saturday morning, Edílson Capetinha was disqualified from Globo TV’s reality show, Big Brother Brasil, for aggression. During the night, the Corinthians idol and world champion had a disagreement with Leandro, one of the house participants, and ended up pushing his opponent.

Edílson got irritated with the bedroom light being on and said, during the argument with Leandro, that he “is acting tough because he’s in here, outside he would have gotten beaten up.”

Previously, the player had already threatened to press the withdrawal button after another argument with Leandro and even said goodbye to his housemates, but ended up giving up on the idea.
