Called up by coach Dunga for the Brazilian team that faces Ireland on February 6th in Dublin, right-back Léo Moura spoke of his joy at his first opportunity wearing the yellow shirt.

- "I'm very happy to be remembered by coach Dunga. I want to share this happiness with my Flamengo teammates, because without them I wouldn't have gotten this call-up. It was another dream come true in my life. I hope it's the first of many call-ups."

But before heading to Ireland, the Flamengo full-back faces Macaé tomorrow at the Maracanã. Léo urged the team to be careful.

- "We have to be focused to avoid any problems. We know it's going to be a very difficult game, but Flamengo has to impose its rhythm from the start to get another victory in this Campeonato Carioca."
