The Brazilian National Team continues its preparations with full focus on the World Cup opener. This Tuesday (09), Leo Nannetti, Flamengo’s goalkeeper, pulled off ‘miracles’ against shots from forwards representing the ‘Seleção’.
Brazil’s training session took place on Tuesday morning (09) in the United States. During the part open to the press, it was possible to see the moment when Leo Nannetti made good saves on shots by Igor Thiago and Endrick. At that moment, the Mengão goalkeeper rose to the occasion against his teammates, preventing the ball from hitting the net.

It is important to point out that Leo Nannetti is another one of Flamengo’s representatives in the Brazilian National Team. The 18-year-old has been with the squad since the sessions began at Granja Comary and traveled with the delegation to the United States.
Leo Nannetti was personally requested by Taffarel, the Brazilian National Team’s goalkeeping coach. That way, the Flamengo goalkeeper is making the most of this period alongside the call-ups to gain experience in his career.
