Brazil called up four Flamengo players for the World Cup


The Brazil National Team will make its World Cup debut against Morocco, who thrashed Madagascar 4-0 this Tuesday (02). The Moroccans’ friendly was part of their preparations to face Brazil, which has four Flamengo players, on June 13.

Saibari scored twice, while Rahimi and Ayoub El Kaabi added one goal each at Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium in Rabat. Madagascar, who are not in the World Cup, managed just one shot on target, which was easily saved by El Kajoui.

So, is Morocco’s goalkeeper no longer Yassine Bounou?

Morocco thrashed Madagascar with their backups. That means Brazil’s opponent did not even need Hakimi, Brahim Díaz, or Bounou, their main standouts. However, the trio will be available to face Norway in their final pre-World Cup friendly.

Which Flamengo players are with Brazil?

The Brazil National Team called up Lucas Paquetá, Alex Sandro, Léo Pereira, and Danilo. As a result, the rubro-negro quartet will be available to face Morocco on the 13th. Haiti and Scotland round out Group C in the tournament.

Does Brazil also have more friendlies?

After starting against Panama, Léo Pereira hopes to get another opportunity against Egypt on Saturday (06). Kickoff is at 7:00 p.m. Brasília time, in the United States. Therefore, Coluna do Fla will bring the result with a focus on the other Flamengo players.
