During halftime of the match at Estádio da Ressacada, Vizeu became emotional when talking about the support he received to realize his dream of being a football player.

– I knew I needed to play, even with this very sad news. I had to help my teammates, who are also family to me. I was very sad to hear my father’s news, but I know he rested. I want to dedicate the goal to him and ask for a lot of prayers for me and my family. May this comfort our hearts. I will continue like this, fighting and shining in the fields of the world, God willing, giving him lots of joy, now looking at me from above – he said.
