Brazil has a commitment against Argentina, Tuesday (21), at 9:30 pm, at Maracanã, in the World Cup qualifiers. Striker Gabriel Martinelli praised the Seleção squad and can’t wait for the ball to roll.

“When we are little and want to be a football player, we dream of big games like this, for the national team or for the club. It’s going to be a very big game. We know the quality of our team, the weight of our shirt. We have to hold on to that. Everything will definitely be fine.”
