Joao Pedro explained the reason for vomiting during the game

Brazil national team forward Joao Pedro suddenly vomited during the 2026 World Cup qualifying match against the Chile national team. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

Nevertheless, the player continued the game and was later substituted. After the match, Pedro commented on this unusual incident.

According to him, he received a blow to his stomach during a collision with Martinelli, which made him feel unwell, but his condition improved afterwards. For reference, the Brazil national team defeated Chile 3-0.

The goals were scored by Estevao Villian, Lucas Paqueta, and Bruno Guimaraes. It is also worth noting that the Brazil team had already secured qualification for the World Cup during the summer months.
