The recent speculation about the Brazilian Football Confederation considering a red jersey for the national team ahead of the 2026 World Cup has provoked significant backlash from right-wing supporters and football purists alike. Many view the color red as a symbol of the left and associated parties like Lula's Workers' Party. Responses included theatrical rejections from prominent conservatives, and ultimately the CBF issued a denial, reaffirming their commitment to maintaining the team's iconic yellow and blue kits, with no official plans for a color change.
The proposed red jersey for Brazil's national football team has ignited outrage among right-wing supporters who view red as a symbol of the left.
Conservative governor Romeu Zema expressed his disapproval by theatrically discarding a mock-up of the red shirt, claiming, 'Our team's shirt will never be red!'
The Brazilian Football Confederation was compelled to deny the authenticity of the red jersey images, emphasizing a commitment to traditional yellow and blue.
Football purists across all political affiliations criticized the red jersey proposal, with former player Walter Casagrande labeling it as idiocy.
