Brazil U-20 National Team faces Paraguay at 7 p.m. (Brasília time) this Saturday (28)

Brazil’s U-20 National Team faces Paraguay in two friendlies. For the first match, at 7 p.m. (Brasília time) this Saturday (28), Douglas Telles and João Victor, Flamengo forward and center back, are available for the squad.

WHAT IS BRAZIL’S PROBABLE LINEUP?

João Pedro; Igor Felisberto, Artur Dias, João Souza and Kauã Prates; Lucas, Pedro Ferreira and Erick Belé; Bruninho, Heittor and Luca Meirelles.

WHERE TO WATCH?

The friendly between Brazil and Paraguay will be broadcast by CBF TV, the official YouTube channel of the Brazilian Football Confederation. The match will be played at Martins Pereira Stadium, in São José dos Campos (SP).

DOUGLAS TELLES AND JOÃO VICTOR AVAILABLE?

Standout players from Flamengo’s U-20 squad, Douglas Telles and João Victor caught the attention of national team coach Paulo Victor Gomes. The duo already has experience with the Rubro-Negro first team, which strengthens their call-up for the preparatory friendlies for the 2027 South American U-20 Championship. However, the tendency is for both to start on the bench.

The South American U-20 Championship determines the qualification spots for the FIFA U-20 World Cup. Therefore, the friendlies serve as early tests for building the squad and evaluating the performances of the young players.

ANOTHER FRIENDLY AGAINST PARAGUAY?

In addition to this Saturday’s friendly (28), Brazil will face Paraguay once again on Tuesday (31). With Douglas Telles and João Victor, the ‘Canarinho’ will take on the Paraguayans at Canindé Stadium, in São Paulo, at 4 p.m. (Brasília time).
