Top scorer of the 2026 Brasileirão with Grêmio, Carlos Vinícius made history this Wednesday (29).
But in a negative way.
The Grêmio striker had THREE chances to convert the penalty won by Tetê after Palestino’s goalkeeper came off his line twice in the Copa Sudamericana clash.
But he missed all THREE attempts against the Chilean side’s goalkeeper.
See below what happened and the reactions on social media.
There was even a slip… 😳
The penalty was awarded after Dilan Zúñiga pulled Tetê in the box.
Carlos Vinícius stepped up and saw Sebastián Pérez guess the corner right before the post came to his aid.
But the Argentine goalkeeper had both feet off the line, and VAR flagged the infringement.
The Grêmio No. 9 took the ball once again and decided to switch sides.
But he saw his tormentor parry it again – before the post came to the rescue once more.
Then… VAR again showed that Pérez had come off his line early.
Carlos Vinícius did not let any teammate take over the responsibility and showed personality.
He stepped up for the kick and… slipped before the rival goalkeeper completed a "hat-trick" of saves.

ABSOLUTE MADNESS, OK?
Many internet users did not forgive him.
Others simply could not believe it.
