The goal of Philippe Coutinho against Manchester United in the Champions League attracted a lot of attention after the celebration of the Brazilian by putting his fingers in his ears.
The gesture was criticized by Rivaldo, which led Coutinho to post a message on Instagram to defend his actions.
The Brazilian has now talked about the celebration in more detail with YouTuber Koko and tried to explain what it was all about.
"I've always been a respectful person to everyone, the truth is that people often realize that I have to cover my ears to stay focused on the game or on my work to avoid the noises that m … ; affect. Coutinho said.
"Well, for a lot of media, I do not have that respect, how do I work and how much I devote to games and workouts.
"It was like a release, so that they can often see the time I have to cover my ears to be able to do my job."
