Paulo Henrique and Puma return for Vasco against Atlético-MG before World Cup pause | OneFootball

Vasco will have Paulo Henrique and Puma available again to face Atlético-MG on Sunday, the final outing before the World Cup break. According to Globo.com, both defenders have recovered and are in the squad.

Paulo Henrique sustained a right ankle injury, while the Uruguayan missed out due to a left foot infection. The pair sat out the last three matches.

In their absence, Renato Gaúcho improvised, using João Vítor Fonseca, a winger by trade, and Tchê Tchê, a midfielder, at full-back.

Probable Vasco: Léo Jardim, Paulo Henrique (Puma Rodríguez), Cuesta, Robert Renan, Cuiabano, Barros, Thiago Mendes, Rojas, Adson, David (Nuno Moreira), Spinelli.

Their availability follows three matches of makeshift solutions in defence.
