The 20-year-old Brazilian defender made his mark this week in the Champions League. Despite the uniqueness of the moment, he has not changed anything in his habits.

The man nicknamed the ‘Joker’ actually engages in a form of laughter therapy to release all forms of tension a few minutes before starting a match. Mental work implemented in Brazil with a trainer, which allows him to be more confident and relaxed on the pitch. The technique is surprising but it proves effective if we rely on the latest outings of a defender in constant progress.
