In a match marked by demonstrations against racism, the Brazilian team faces Guinea in a friendly match, starting at 4:30 pm (Brasília time) on Saturday (17), at the Cornellà-El Prat stadium, which belongs to Espanyol, in Barcelona (Spain). National Radio broadcasts the match live. In its first game after striker Vinicius Júnior was the victim of racist attacks in a Spanish Championship game between Real Madrid and Valencia at Mestalla Stadium, the men’s soccer team from Brazil will enter the field, for the first time in 109 years of history, with uniform totally black. The CBF initiative is part of a series of actions organized to combat racism. The selection will play throughout the first half of the game against Guinea with the black shirt. After the break, the team temporarily led by Ramon Menezes will play with the yellow shirt, which will also allude to the fight against racism. In addition to being an opportunity to publicly take a stand against racism, the game will also serve for the team to seek its first victory since the 2022 World Cup. for Croatia) the team only had one engagement, a friendly against Morocco played in Tangier that ended with the hosts winning 2-1. fair (16), who wants Brazil to triumph again and present good football: “May Brazil win again, play well again and be in control of actions, as is already part of the tradition of the selection, which He’s also strong on the defensive end.” To reach this objective, the coach must send to the field a team formed by a mixture of players who were in Qatar with athletes who are receiving opportunities, some of them the first time, in the Canadian team. Those who received the first call-up are Ayrton Lucas (Flamengo), Vanderson (Monaco, France), Joelinton (Newcastle, England) and Robert Renan (Zenit, Russia). The expectation is that Richarlison will be kept in the position of starting center forward even though he is experiencing a moment of low productivity at Tottenham (England). Lateral Ayrton Lucas and midfielder Joelinton should receive an opportunity in the starting lineup. However, the highlight is with Vinícius Júnior. The striker, who is considered by many to be the best Brazilian player currently active, will wear the number 10 shirt in the friendlies against Guinea and Senegal. One doubt is in the goal, where goalkeeper Alisson felt pain in the fifth finger of his left hand and will undergo an evaluation to determine if he has conditions to play. If the goalkeeper of Liverpool (England) does not act, Weverton, from Palmeiras, starts as a starter. With that, the Brazilian team should go to the field with: Alisson (Weverton); Danilo, Éder Militão, Marquinhos and Ayrton Lucas; Casemiro, Joelinton and Lucas Paquetá; Rodrygo, Vinicius Junior and Richarlison. The Guinea national team, on the other hand, places its trust in two players who play in leagues of great appeal in Europe: midfielder Naby Keita, who has just left Liverpool for Werder Bremen (Germany), and striker Guirassy, from Stuttgart (Germany). ). The African team comes from a defeat to Egypt, by 2 to 1, for the Qualifiers of the African Cup of Nations.
