“This is not part of the spectacle, but we keep going strong, family. Proud to be ‘negão’, nothing will shake me,” said the forward in a post on Instagram.

Despite the repercussion of the case, Brusque has not yet commented.

This is not the first time

In February of this year, Brusque and Criciúma drew 1-1 in the eighth round of the Campeonato Catarinense. That match was also marked by a case of racism.

In the match held at Estádio Augusto Bauer, Criciúma goalkeeper Caíque accused a fan of calling him “monkey,” as in the case of Igor Bolt. On that occasion, the aggressor was also identified and taken to the police station, according to information from NSC Esporte.

Brusque published a note after the match, repudiating the case of racism and cooperating with the investigations.
