The midfielder LUCAS MOURA, CRACK OF SAO PAULOis on the bank on Tuesday (06/05), in a game against Alianza Lima, at Alejandro Villanueva stadium in Lima, Peru, for the fourth round of Libertadores Group D.
Coach Luis Zubeldía chose to leave Lucas in the reserve due to planning. The midfielder is only in the second game as related after recovering from the right knee injury. Lucas returned last Friday, entering 20 minutes of the second half of a draw 0-0 with Fortaleza. The intention is to promote the return of shirt 7 gradually.
Lucas’s injury took place in shock on Allianz Parque’s synthetic lawn in the defeat of Sao Paulo 1-0 for Palmeiras, for the semifinal of the Paulista Championship, on March 11. Last Monday, he talked about what happened:
– It’s hard to dig (which the synthetic lawn caused injury). There is no way to know. What I can say is that it was a very big impact. The doctors told me that it was a “panel trauma,” which they call, “panel injury.” Like when you are driving a car, crashes and the car panel hits very hard here on this knee.
São Paulo lineup against Alianza Lima: Rafael; Enzo Díaz, Ruan Tressoldi, Ferraresi, Alan Franco; MARCOS ANTONIO, ALISSON, MATHEUS ALVES; Cédric, Ferreirinha, André Silva. Technical: Luis Zubeldía.
