Brazil and Egypt were tied 1-1 when Danilo had to come off the bench


Bad news for the Brazil National Team. That is because Wesley felt pain still in the first half of the match against Egypt this Saturday (06). As a result, Carlo Ancelotti had to make a substitution and called Danilo on during the teams’ partial draw.

The product of Flamengo’s youth academy was in the national team’s attacking half when he caused a stoppage in the friendly, which is being played in the United States. The youngster crouched down with a pained expression and grabbed the back of his left thigh, which indicates a problem in that area.

Did we lose Wesley?

While Wesley’s situation has not yet been diagnosed, Danilo is revisiting his days as a right back. That is because the Flamengo defender is naturally a center back, but changed positions as his career progressed.

And how is Brazil playing?

Of the four Flamengo players, only Lucas Paquetá started the friendly. So, Brazil and Egypt went into halftime tied 1-1. Bruno Guimarães scored after an Egyptian defensive mistake. In a similar situation, however, Ziko equalized.

Is the World Cup near?

The friendly comes ahead of both teams’ debut in the World Cup. Hoping to have Wesley available, the Brazil National Team will play Morocco on June 13. Kickoff is at 7:00 p.m. (Brasília time).
