Photos from the Brazil squad`s training before their 2-1 victory against Colombia in a World Cup qualifier were shared by Newcastle, revealing the surprising physique.

Joelinton, recently celebrated for his key role in Newcastle`s Carabao Cup win over Liverpool, surprised fans with the apparent disproportion in his leg size.

In the circulated image, his right leg appears significantly larger and more muscular than his left leg.

Social media users reacted with disbelief and humor, with comments like: "He really committed to being right-footed."

Another user commented on the "diabolical" state of his legs.

One more added, jokingly suggesting, "Bro never skips right leg day."

One fan even created a meme contrasting Newcastle with the larger leg and Liverpool with the smaller one.

Joelinton was a substitute in the match against Colombia.

He entered the game in the 28th minute, replacing Gerson, and received a yellow card in the 86th minute.

Raphinha opened the scoring with a penalty early in the match.

Luis Diaz leveled the score for Colombia, but Vinicius Jr. secured a late victory for Brazil in the 99th minute.

Brazil will next face Argentina on Wednesday.
