This last Monday (8), Brazil completed 10 years against 1 x 7 Germany, in the semi-final of the 2014 World Cup. In the game that was held at Mineirão, a player who currently plays for Flamengo was in the starting lineup: David Luiz. In an interview, German goalkeeper Manuel Neuer recalled that the defender, at the time a Chelsea athlete, was treated as one of the gaps for the Europeans to attack the spaces.
" We knew that Neymar and Thiago Silva were two big absences and that Brazil we had lost important players in the structure. And we knew that David Luiz was a defender who liked to advance and, therefore, gaps would arise. We sat down with the coach and he prepared us so that we had our space between the lines and also in depth. That's why it was important to maintain our positioning and then take advantage of the opportunities", said Neuer, in an interview with Globo.
It's worth remembering that Brazil entered the field without its two main players. Neymar suffered a serious back injury after taking a knee against Colombia in the quarter-finals. And Thiago Silva was suspended for accumulating yellow cards. Thus, David Luiz formed a pair with Dante. In attack, Felipão chose Bernard.
DAVID LUIZ IS FLAMENGO'S HIGHLIGHTEven with the sad memory of his tenth birthday, David Luiz lives at his peak and is one of the biggest highlights from Flamengo at 37 years old. The defender is an absolute starter for Tite's team and even placed Léo Pereira on the bench. The defender has 17 games and two goals this year.
FOCUS ON THE NEXT CONFRONTATIONNow, David Luiz and the rest of the squad focus on the next Mais Querido clash. Rubro-Negro returns to the field next Thursday (11), in a match valid for the 16th round of the Brasileirão, against Fortaleza.

Sometimes, football doesn't follow the logic of the game, and that's difficult to accept," said the coach. p>
Mengão had control of the game and created good chances, but saw their opponent take advantage of one of the few opportunities they had, which ended up generating frustration for both the coach and the fans.
During the interview, Tite was asked about the move that led to Vasco's equalizing goal. He criticized Raphael Claus' refereeing and stated that the play started with an unmarked foul on Léo Pereira. "For me, it was a foul on Léo Pereira outside the area. A clear imbalance behind his back. I've seen situations like this with Claus before, and his criteria confuse me", said the coach, expressing dissatisfaction.
However, the coach made a point of highlighting that responsibility for the result is collective, involving both the players and the coaching staff. He also commented on the presence of the defenders in the opponent's area during the play: "The defenders went into the area to try to finish. We had the chance to finish, but we made a mistake together. Vasco was effective in one of the few chances they had."< /p>

Kauã entered the field after the experienced Kevin Trapp was injured at the end of the first half.

Kauã Santos, who arrived at Flamengo at the age of 16, he never played for the Rio club's main team.
