Richarlison has admitted to off-field struggles affecting his Brazil and Tottenham form - but Ange Postecoglou can get him back to his best.
The reason for Richarlison's emotion seemed obvious. Since arriving at Spurs from Everton for £50 million last summer, he has struggled to nail down a starting spot in north London, but his trips away with Brazil have always been a safe space. They love Richarlison in his homeland and his place in the starting XI has rarely been in doubt.
Until now, that is. In the wake of the Bolivia match, the doyen of Brazilian sports writing Juca Kfouri stated: "It is not a reason for drama, but when Vinicius Junior returns, and with how well Rodrygo is playing, Richarlison should be happy if he's even on the bench."However, as the player later explained, his tears were not caused by the threat to his place in the first team.
