The Brazil National Team has begun the countdown to the World Cup. As part of the preparations, the ‘Canarinho’ beat Panama 6-2 this Sunday (31) at the Maracanã. The friendly featured four Flamengo players: Alex Sandro, Danilo, Léo Pereira and Lucas Paquetá.
Léo Pereira and Alex Sandro started the match in Brazil’s defense. However, while the left back left the pitch at halftime as part of the changes made by Carlo Ancelotti to test almost the entire squad, the center back stayed on the field.
Later, in the second half, Danilo and Lucas Paquetá came on to give the team a new rhythm. The midfielder led Brazil’s attacking play, standing out by scoring a goal and providing an assist in the rout.
With Flamengo’s quartet available, the Brazil National Team heads to New Jersey, United States, this Monday (01). There, Brazil will face Egypt in its final friendly before its World Cup debut. The match will take place next Saturday (06), at 7 p.m. (Brasília time), at Huntington Bank Field in Cleveland.
