The Selecao host Colombia in Brasilia on Friday (IST) before travelling to Buenos Aires for a mouth-watering match against Argentina on the 26 (IST).<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Having still not quite hit their stride, Dorival Junior\u2019s team are currently fifth in the table, which would see them automatically qualify for next year\u2019s tournament.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"These games are going to be our toughest test yet. But we are more than capable of putting together two great performances. We have to focus on Colombia first. They\u2019re a tough opponent, but we will have home advantage, and all of our big players are performing at a high level for their clubs in Europe,\" said Andre, speaking to FIFA.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Andre also opened up on the excitement of playing alongside the star-studded Brazil squad, which includes the likes of Vinicius Junior and Raphinha, two of the best wingers in the game today.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cIt\u2019s an honour being able to play alongside them. They\u2019ll slot back in and we\u2019ll have two good games. It\u2019s also a massive honour being able to represent my country. So I hope this international window is a special one and that we can come away from it with two wins\u201d, he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Alongside Andre, Matheus Cunha was also rewarded for his fine form with a call-up. The versatile and talented midfielder has not represented his country since the defeat to Uruguay, in October 2023. Cunha already has 13 goals to his name in 26 Premier League matches this season. Over the whole of last season, he managed 12 goals in 32 games.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
