SAO PAULO -- Every time Australian goalkeeper Lydia Williams launched a kick, the Brazilian crowd chanted a homophobic slur.It wasnt a personal attack on Williams. But it was ugly.Brazilian journalists believed it was the first time the chant had been used at a womens football game in the Olympic host country.Matildas coach Alen Stajcic and his players didnt understand the word chanted by a standing-room section behind one goal in the 20,521-strong crowd which watched Australias 2-0 loss to Canada.I dont understand the language or the culture or where that has evolved from, Stajcic said post-game.Its not really for me to say around the the culture of that comment and how it has evolved in Brazilian football because that is maybe a negative.And I dont know, as I said, the history behind it.It doesnt sound pleasant.The Sao Paulo crowd also used the chant when the Canadian goalkeeper kicked the ball.Local journalists said it wasnt personally directed at the `keepers, but an offensive habit which first reared during the 2014 World Cup, when Arena Corinthians hosted the tournament opener.Custom Miami Marlins Jerseys .
