Heittor wrapped up the FIFA international window with another goal for the Brazil U-20 National Team. The forward scored in the 4-0 win over Mexico this Sunday (4) in San Pedro del Pinatar, Spain, and expressed his satisfaction with the work the group has done over the past few days.

The player also highlighted the team’s collective progress throughout the friendlies. For the forward, the training camp and matches were important in bringing the players closer together and helping them absorb Paulo Victor’s ideas.

“I’m very happy to be scoring goals in this shirt. Very happy with the team’s work, with the group. This preparation was very good for us, to build chemistry as a team. I’m very happy to find the net, and I hope to keep going to help the team,” he said.

The goal against the Mexicans completed a personal streak for the forward. Heittor scored in all three matches Brazil played during this FIFA window: he scored against Denmark in the 4-1 win, scored again against the United States in the 2-0 victory, and capped off the run with another goal in the rout over Mexico. That made it three goals in three matches.

“It was very good. I think it was one of the best training camps we’ve had so far,” he said.

The forward also stressed the process of adapting to the coaching staff’s instructions. With a run of matches and training sessions, the group began to better understand what Paulo Victor wants to put into practice on the field.

“As a team, we’re building chemistry, we’re getting what Paulo is asking us to do, what the staff is instructing us to do, so all I can do is be thankful and grateful for the opportunity,” he concluded.
