Lucy Bronze and Geyse lifted the European Championship and the Copa América, respectively, a month after signing for Barça
The same thing happened with Lieke Martens in 2017; in addition, the Dutch, was named MVP
Lieke Martens she was proclaimed champion of Europe in the summer of 2017 -with the plus that she was chosen MVP of the tournament- just after signing for Barça. She was also named ‘The Best’. Five years later, history repeats itself. Hopefully with a different ending.
Early on Saturday we saw how a young geyse who is just beginning to have gallons with Brazil he lifted the Copa América and, on Sunday afternoon, a Lucy Bronze plethoric throughout the month of July the gold was hung on the European Championship with England.
DIAMOND
The first had a smaller participation: he played four games, only one as a starter. It was precisely in that match against Peru, which ended in a 6-0 win for the ‘seleçao’, where Geyse was the protagonist with a goal and two assists in the first half. In the final against Colombia, the ‘Pretinha’ only played four minutes, but he stood out for an individual play from the wing in added time that almost gave Brazil the second goal. Geyse proved again that he is a diamond in the rough who has a great future at Barça and in the senior team.
OF GOLD
Lucy Bronze’s European Championship It was for framing. England started as the great favorite, because they had everything in their favor. However, they surprised already in the group stage by thrashing Norway 8-0. Only Spain and Germany were able to compete, the only two teams that managed to mark him. Twenty-two goals in favor and only two conceded. Great ‘guilty’ of it was the Barcelona side.
Bronze played practically every minute of the tournament -she was only changed in the 70th minute against Northern Ireland- and she was a key player for the ‘lionesses’ of Wiegman. A dagger down the wing and a wall in defence. He scored a header in the semi-final against Sweden and had two assists in total. An excellent performance, that of the Englishwoman who, in addition, was crowned queen of the party at the celebration. Barcelona awaits you.
