  "account": "Jacy, a center back for Brazilian club Coritiba, scored a goal during a match but faced an unexpected twist. The striker, intending to celebrate by lifting his shirt to reveal a baby, leapt over advertising boards to join the fans. However, Jacy entered into a tunnel leading to the locker rooms beneath the field, out of sight from the crowd. Initial reactions ranged from shock to disappointment among supporters and teammates. After a brief moment of confusion, Jacy managed to stumble out of the tunnel and continued his celebratory display, unaware his goal had been disallowed. Coritiba scored a 2-1 victory, securing a 10th-place position in the Brazilian Serie A table, while Chapecoense remained at the bottom of the league.",
