Y’all have no idea what this bronze means. There’s barely any investment in Olympic sports in Brazil, only soccer. These women have funded themselves for the majority of their lives. Rebeca came from the favelas. These are super heroes who have beat all odds.
Rodri having a quiet Euros and losing the UCL to Vinicius Jr and Bellingham and still being tipped for the Ballon d’Or is insane. The power of PR man. So undeserved.
Trent Alexander-Arnold vs Prime Marcelo:
Both incredible offensively, maybe TAA slightly better due to his playmaking creativity. Both all time greats in attack, but both all time bad in defence
Lucas Esquivel 22, at Athletico Paranaense.
Defensive gem.
84.6% passing accuracy, 15 chances created.
Hidden talent in the Brazilian league.
€1.1 million.
Steal.
