Footage showed Manchester United midfielder Fred kicking the banana away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prior to the game, the five-time world champions posed for photographs with an anti-racism banner which read: \u201cWithout our black players, we wouldn\u2019t have stars on our shirts.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Brazilian Football Federation (CBF) issued a statement on the Richarlison incident via Twitter. It read: \u201cUnfortunately a banana was thrown on the pitch towards Richarlison, scorer of the second Brazilian goal. The CBF reinforces its position to combat racism and repudiates any manifestation of prejudice.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Richarlison scoring for Brazil today against Tunisia and a banana was thrown in front of him during the celebrations.

This time I saw it with my own eyes. This shocks us. We must always remember that we are all the same, regardless of colour, race or religion. The fight against racism is not a cause, but a fundamental [battle for] change to wipe this type of crime from the planet. I insist on saying that the punishments need to be more severe.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Richarlison\u2019s goal put Brazil back ahead after Montassar Talbi cancelled out Raphinha\u2019s opener.
