Today I understand that playing is a fun philosophy, but we occupy spaces and we know how to protect them - said Marquinhos in a press conference held this Monday (11).  The defender fired the coach for the goal that Brazil gave up against Bolivia. The situation, which occurred when the match was won 4-0, did not affect the score, but left an air of attention for the Seleção.  - We improved a lot, we conceded a goal because of that, but that was our care. This is more than philosophy. We analyzed very well, we analyzed situations and we were protected in many of them, which nullified the Bolivian attacks. It's an ambitious philosophy, but it's devoid of entertainment. It's just a different picture happening. We feel good – the defender showed that.  + LANCEFUT coupon with 10% OFF for sports fanatics on purchases over R$ 299.90 Brazil beat Bolivia in the debut of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers (Photo: Vitor Silva/CBF) GROUP CLOSED?  Asked if there is a formula for becoming a champion, Marquinhos, who is playing his third World Cup qualifying match, recalled his elimination in the last World Cup, in the quarter-finals against Croatia, on penalties. Brazil was leading 1-0 until three minutes before the end of extra time, when they pulled away.  - We see different philosophies of champions, teams that get along well on the field and are champions, teams that don't like each other or even look at each other, but on the field they fight for the same goal. We had a good environment, we trained and fought a lot, we did everything, and in detail we lost the World Cup - replied the player.  COULD YOU BE IN ANOTHER POSITION?

In the field, everyone knows this. I can see the ideas, what you're doing. You have a defender on the field, a full-back who floats between the lines as a midfielder. But we will not be left unprotected. It was always mobile, drawing the enemy's attention to our rear and leading to our other objectives. He didn't try another position, but he was mobile within the game. We have all become accustomed to this movement. It's fun, it's interesting, everyone knows the importance of each position. We see a midfielder, a midfielder, who has the same concentration as a defender during the game. A tactical awareness that requires concentration from everyone for collective growth.  In addition to the four lines, Marquinhos also has the responsibility of leading Brazil's defense, something that, despite his vast experience in the national team, he has never played. In other pre-World Cup seasons, the defender had names like Di Miranda and the more experienced Thiago Silva at his side. Currently, the PSG athlete is responsible for providing security to young players, such as Gabriel Magalhães, together with him in the defensive system against Bolivia, Ibañez and Nino, who is part of the national delegation, or other defenders who reached the cycle until Across the world.  - Great joy to have names in defense: Thiago, Miranda, David Luiz, Sergio Ramos (at PSG) (etc). I learned a lot, I grew a lot with each other. Today I strive to be what they are to me. I give my teammates peace of mind and confidence, I communicate with them and help them on and off the field. It was calm, without forcing anything, without exaggeration. If these defenders have made it this far, it is because of their quality. It’s not up to me to do something extraordinary for them – Marquinhos highlighted.
