When asked to comment on Nigeria and Senegal teams, Marquinhos told reporters at Monday’s press conference: ”I know a lot and know their qualities. Senegal is the runner-up of the Africa Cup, a very intense, difficult team.
”We have to make a big game, impose our rhythm. They are very intense opponents, aggressive, with physical imposition and technical game too.
”We see great players playing in the major European Leagues, many of them in France”.
