Both named in the Maurice Revello Tournament 2019 best XI, Douglas Luiz and Emerson earned their first international cap with Brazil on this Tuesday.
They are now three Maurice Revello Tournament 2019 winners to have earned their first international cap with the Brazil senor team following their exploits in the south of France !
After the Gremio midfielder Matheus Henrique on September, these are Douglas Luiz and Emerson who played their first minutes with the Selecao on this Tuesday during the 3-0 win over South Korea in a friendly.
The Aston Villa midfielder Douglas Luiz, named best player of the Maurice Revello Tournament 2019, replaced the FC Barcelona player Arthur.
Meanwhile, the Betis right-back Emerson, named in the Maurice Revello Tournament 2019 best XI, came off the bench to replace Atletico Madrid defender Renan Lodi.
This first appearance with the Seleçao sounds like a reward for the strong start to the season made by both players. Douglas Luiz distinguished himself with Aston Villa in Premier League (10 games, 2 goals) while Emerson established himself as a key player for Betis in La Liga (10 games, 2 goals).
