“3 goals came from Flamengo players”, says Samuel Lino after Brazil rout | OneFootball

Samuel Lino scores twice in Brazil’s 4-0 rout of India

Brazil thrashed India 4-0 this Saturday (03) at Salt Lake Stadium in Kolkata. Samuel Lino scored twice in the win and highlighted the three goals scored by Flamengo players in the match. The clash was Carlo Ancelotti’s third in charge of the team during this FIFA international window.

What did Samuel Lino say about the win and Flamengo?

– Today was a great win for the national team. I’m happy I was able to help, and I’m happy about Pedro’s goal too. Knowing that three goals came from Flamengo players shows that we’re well represented. I’m happy with the win and with finishing these three matches well — the forward told GETV.

How did the heat affect the game, according to Samuel Lino?

– It’s 30°C at night, 40°C in the morning, and 35°C in the afternoon. Very hot! What really weighs on you is the muggy heat, that heavy air that lingers, and that affects the flow of the game a bit. There’s no way to play at a high tempo all the time because the heat really gets in the way. After two or three sprints, you’re already out of breath. But we managed it well, got the goals, and came away with the win — he added.

Who did Samuel Lino dedicate the goals to?

– I dedicate them to my wife, my family, and my parents. I dedicate both the first and second goals to my son as well. As for my celebration? I’m not going to tell.

Samuel Lino has already put behind him his Brazil debut at Bolivia’s altitude?

– I left that one behind. We know how hard it is to play in South America, especially there, where I was a little below my level. But now it’s time to keep working because we all know what we can do in the national team — he emphasized.

Will Samuel Lino keep the shirts from his games for Brazil?

– Since these were my first call-ups… Ah, if I get a third, fourth, fifth call-up, God willing, I’ll keep the first shirts because they’re always special. When I have, God willing, plenty of call-ups, then I’ll swap them, because the national team shirt is very special, he said fondly.

How did the match go and what are Brazil’s next games?

So, Brazil opened the scoring in the 27th minute through Estêvão and doubled the lead in the 41st through Pedro. In the second half, Samuel Lino made it 3-0 in the 12th minute and wrapped it up with the final kick of the game: 4-0.

So, the friendly brought the September and October Super FIFA window to a close, with the clubs returning this Tuesday (06). Brazil will only resume activities in November, with two friendlies in Singapore against Japan and Singapore.
