Brazil is eliminated from the Under-20 World Cup after a 1-0 defeat to Spain this Saturday (04). Thus, defenders Iago and João Victor return to Flamengo after the national team's exit in the group stage of the world tournament.
The Brazilian team started well, with Wesley delivering three crosses from the right that almost resulted in goals. In the second half, however, Spain improved, and Iker Bravo scored the goal that eliminated Brazil.
Brazil earned only one point in three matches. The Brazilian team scored three goals and conceded five. It is likely that there will be changes in the youth football department.
Iago was a starter and captain of the Under-20 team. The defender even scored one of Brazil's goals against Morocco in the second round. Meanwhile, defender João Victor did not play in any of Brazil's three matches in the tournament.
Therefore, with the return of Iago and João Victor, the Flamengo Under-20 team plays against Volta Redonda in the category on Saturday (11). The match is part of the last round of the Campeonato Carioca, a tournament in which the Rubro-Negro is the runner-up with 22 points.
