All Flamengo players featured in the match

The Brazil National Team beat Egypt 2-1 this Saturday (06) in Cleveland, in the final friendly before the start of the World Cup. Lucas Paquetá started, while Danilo, Léo Pereira and Alex Sandro came on during the match.

Just seven minutes in, Bruno Guimarães won the ball back, went one-on-one with the goalkeeper and finished calmly to open the scoring for the Brazil National Team. However, in the 11th minute, Marquinhos misplaced a back pass and handed the ball to Egypt’s Mostafa Ziko, who leveled the match for Egypt.

At the start of the second half, coach Carlo Ancelotti changed almost the entire Brazil side. Endrick, who came on for Igor Thiago, scored the winner seven minutes into the second half.

HOW DID THE FLAMENGO PLAYERS DO?

Lucas Paquetá started, but was substituted at halftime. Meanwhile, Alex Sandro and Léo Pereira were brought on in the second half. It is also worth mentioning that Danilo started on the bench, but had to come on for Wesley, who left the field in pain.

IS IT A CONCERN FOR THE WORLD CUP?

Fullback Wesley felt pain early in the match and had to be replaced by Danilo, a Flamengo player. The former rubro-negro defender left the pitch in tears. As a result, he will undergo tests in the coming days to assess the situation.

WHEN DOES BRAZIL MAKE ITS WORLD CUP DEBUT?

With that, the Brazil National Team now turns its focus to its World Cup opener. Carlo Ancelotti’s team faces Morocco on Saturday (13) at 7 p.m. (Brasília time) at MetLife Stadium in the first round of the competition.

That way, Coluna do Fla will bring all the information about the match and the Flamengo players. In addition, TV Globo and SBT on free-to-air TV, CazéTV on YouTube, and SporTV on pay TV will broadcast Brazil’s World Cup opener.
