Luan, defender who used to be the absolute starter of Palmeiras, got injured, went through complicated moments and saw Murilo gain space in the alviverde defense
After three months off, luan returned to the field for palm trees this Sunday, 5th, in a very complicated match against Atlético-MG and it went very well. working together with Murilo in the absence of Gustavo Gomezwho was in the Paraguay national team, the defender was one of those responsible for stopping one of the best attacks in Brazil today.
The last time that Luan entered the field, before the confrontation against Galo, was in the grand final of the Club World Cup, in which Palmeiras ended up being defeated by 2 to 1, by the Chelsea, in overtime. Due to the high physical load required to face the European team, the defender suffered a serious muscle injury in his thigh and had to do a kind of pre-season within the season itself to be able to recover.
CHANNEL – ATHLETISTIC
Even after three months, the player returned to the field with a great load of physical demand and did very well in the 0-0 draw. Remembering his injury, shirt 13 commented on the period in which he was out, he left the problems behind and revealed what he thinks for the remainder of the season.
“Difficult, bad, nobody likes to get hurt, but it’s a page turned, it’s been three months and something, with a lot of support for my teammates and friends, a lot of time with my wife and family. We have to take good things out of these bad times, and the good lesson I learn is that I had time to be with them and now they will miss Dad, who will have to concentrate every week. It was a third of the season, we still have two thirds, I’m sure I can help the team a lot“, revealed the defender before completing.
“I felt good, obviously every player likes to play, he came in a very good sequence (before getting hurt), football is made up of opportunities and the athletes had theirs and they did well. The teacher is very well trained to choose the best 11 for each game. We know we’ll all have opportunities and I’ll be there fighting for my chance“, he added.
Defense that no one passes! 🚫
