Gabriel Martinelli has been Brazil’s best player so far.
Vinicius
The time has come to pause football at the club level, well, it is time once again to see the national teams in action. Right now, Brazil and Colombia are playing in one of the most attractive matches of the week. Furthermore, as if that were not enough, Brazil needs to win, as it has already had a draw and a loss in just four games.
In the absence of Neymar Jr due to a serious ACL injury, it is the youngsters’ turn to take a step forward. Surprisingly, neither Vinicius Jr nor Rodrygo Goes were responsible for the first Brazilian goal, but rather Gabriel Martinelli the one who stepped up, as he has shown for Arsenal.
Ancelotti surrenders to Vinicius and Rodrygo:
Vinicius and Rodrygo have returned to their best level. They needed time to express their best quality again. In the last two games they have done very well. They have combined well, looking for spaces and playing with extraordinary quality. You can say they are back.”
