Premier League: Brazilian misses sitter, injured, leaves in tears
Goalkeeper John Victor had a day to forget this Saturday (3).
The Brazilian made an error in one of the goals conceded by Nottingham Forest against Aston Villa in their Premier League clash.
He also sustained an injury during the play and had to leave the game shortly afterward. As he left the field, John was seen crying.

The Brazilian's mistake occurred at the 27th minute of the second half when he left the area to try to intercept a through pass.
John McGinn, Aston Villa's forward, reached the ball first and quickly shot it into the net, taking advantage of the fact that the Forest goalkeeper had left the goal open.
While the Aston Villa players celebrated, John grabbed his left knee area and fell to the ground requesting medical attention.
He was substituted before the game resumed and left the field in tears, being consoled by teammates and medical staff members.

The Brazilian had been gaining ground within the Forest team in recent weeks.
This Saturday's match was his sixth consecutive start as the team's goalkeeper.
In the last FIFA International Match Calendar, in November 2025, the former Botafogo player was called up to the Brazilian National Team to replace Hugo Souza, who was injured.
