With Lucas Rosa in the starting line-up, Valladolid ended a series of five consecutive defeats by beating Valencia and leaving the relegation zone of the Spanish Championship. The Brazilian, at the age of 22, has been establishing himself in the team maintained by Ronaldo Fenômeno.
“The only result that mattered to us was the three points and we got it. It was a great job for the whole team and we already have to think about the next match”, evaluated Lucas. The next match will be against Real Sociedad, third in the league table, on Sunday.
In his second season with Valladolid, the Italian-Brazilian has only been out of one commitment in the national competition since his debut against Celta de Vigo, on October 19. In all, there were nine games, seven as a starter. Lucas still played three times for the King’s Cup, all from the beginning, with an assist.
Formed in the youth categories of Palmeiras, Lucas Rosa can act as a right and left side – the original position, however, is the right. Against Real Sociedad, the Brazilian could complete his tenth appearance for the Spanish Championship.
“I’m happy for everything I’m living and that only motivates me to work even harder. We know the difficulties and the level of the League, one of the main ones in the world. Living this experience at such a young age has been sensational,” she said. Capped by youth teams, he spent three seasons at Juventus before moving to Valladolid.
