Team of wimps
Brazilian side Botafogo suffered a 3-0 home defeat to Goias on Sunday to round off four miserable days, during which their coach quit and angry fans hurled women's underwear at players.
Having already forced the abandonment of Saturday's training session by brawling with club security staff, supporters showed their dissatisfaction by singing the club song with their backs to the pitch as the players ran on to the field.
They unfurled banners reading 'team with no shame' and 'team of wimps'.Fans protested again as the players left the stadium, chanting 'team of dolls'.
