Man Utd icon Keane: Dancing Tite not okay

Former Manchester United captain Roy Keane has told Brazil boss Tite to dance "in the nightclub" instead of on the field.

The Brazil coach and his team came under fire for their over the top celebrations against South Korea in the round of 16.

Brazil won the game 4-1, doing a different dancing celebration after each goal they scored.

"I love watching Brazil and what they stand for," Keane told Sky Bet.

"When you think of the World Cup you think of Brazil, I love watching them because they are brilliant at football, but not when they are dancing, or the manager starts dancing, it's not okay.

"It's not respectful. Respect your teammates and your opposition. A manager doing a dance on the sideline, you think that's okay?

“I don't get how a manager can dance when the game is still going ahead, he's got an opposition manager ten yards away from him, you've got to watch that. The game is about respect. Dance afterwards in the dressing room, or in the nightclub, that's not a problem."
