Romário criticized Vinicius for following Ancelotti's penalty shootout order against Norway. He believes that, as the team’s key player, Vinicius should take the initiative in taking penalties. He also criticized the Brazilian team for lacking the right attitude in key matches.

Romário said during a live broadcast on RomárioTV: "I saw comments about this penalty kick, saying that Bruno Guimaraes performed better than Vinicius in training, so he should take it. No problem, this shows that he respects the coach's arrangement, but brother, you still need to show some attitude... Vinicius is the protagonist of the team, the core of the national team. He should take the ball and take the penalty himself, and the problem will be solved. If I were Vinicius, I would take this penalty. I would take the ball from Bruno Guimaraes and take it myself."

What the Brazilian national team lacks most, and what players should have most, especially in such decisive matches, is attitude. Brazil did not show the right attitude. As five-time FIFA World Cup champions, we cannot allow a team like Norway – even if they are good – to control 60% to 70% of possession. This is unacceptable.

We have always heard that, in the FIFA World Cup, Brazil's opponents are the ones waiting for opportunities. But yesterday, it was Brazil who played that way, which shocked me greatly. I also cannot understand Ancelotti's tactical arrangement. He himself said that the situation of the game was basically as expected. This kind of thing should not be expected...
