Vinicius said, during press statements after the expected fiery meeting.
"He is a role model for most of the players here,"
he added.
And he continued: “Every time I participated with Brazil, I
felt that there was something missing for me to be a starter. I spoke with Tite
on the phone and I prepared better and knew that I would be ready at the right
time.”
And he continued: “I am happy because I started the
tournament well, but I do not want to stop there, I want to improve until the
final.”

starter in the national team, he has always given me the confidence I need, he
is like a father to me.”
He concluded: “He gives me affection and responsibility and
