Singer-songwriter Gilberto Gil, 80 years old, and his wife Flora Gil, 62 years old, were harassed by Brazilian fans in Qatar, as they walked down a corridor to watch the match between Brazil and Serbia at the Lusail stadium, on Thursday.

In the video, it is possible to hear voices mentioning the name of President Bolsonaro, from the PL ( Liberal Party), and shouting curse words at the singer, who did not react.
