It's the second round, but it already feels like a decisive match! Brazil takes the field at 8 PM (Brasília time) this Wednesday (01) to face Morocco in Group C of the Under-20 World Cup. For the match, coach Ramon Menezes has chosen a player from Flamengo for the starting lineup: Iago.
Otávio; Igor Serrote, Iago, Bruno Alves, and Leandrinho; Rayan Lucas, Rafael Coutinho, João Cruz, Wesley, Erick Belé, and Luighi.
Besides Iago, captain of the Brazilian National Team, Flamengo has another athlete in the squad: fellow defender João Victor, who was on the bench in the debut against Mexico. Finally, Ramon Menezes' team includes Rayan Lucas, a product of Ninho, who is currently with Sporting (POR).
In the debut, with Iago on the field for the full 90 minutes, Brazil drew 2-2 with Mexico. Meanwhile, Morocco started off on the right foot, defeating Spain 2-0. In the opening of the second round, this Wednesday (01), Europeans and Mexicans ended in a 2-2 draw.
Thus, Morocco leads with three points. Mexico, with one more game, has two. Brazil and Spain close Group C with one point each. However, the green and yellow team will take the top spot in the group if they achieve a good result later.
It's worth noting that the top two advance to the knockout stage, and the four best third-placed teams also continue in the competition. It's important to highlight that the World Cup has six groups. The tournament is taking place in Chile, and Brazil's game this Wednesday (01) will be at the Estadio Nacional Julio Martínez Pradanos in Santiago, the country's capital.
Brazil vs. Morocco will be broadcast on FIFA's streaming service, as well as on the subscription channel SporTV. Additionally, CazéTV will air the match. However, Coluna do Fla, as soon as the match ends, will provide a summary of the clash on the website and social media, highlighting Iago's participation.
