Focused on facing Germany, in the World Cup semi-finals, next Tuesday (08), the Brazilian team players took a break from football and stayed up until the early hours of this Sunday to cheer on their compatriot Lyoto Machida at UFC 175.
The fight, valid for the organization's middleweight belt, was watched by Brazilian players through a big screen set up at Granja Comari, in Teresópolis, and they were excited by each attack from the Bahian fighter.
Even defeated by the champion Chris Weidman, in the unanimous decision of the judges, Lyoto received praise from the defender Thiago Silva through his Instagram account. “Bro, you’re already champion, we’re cheering a lot here!! Hugs from the Brazilian team family @lyotomachidafw”, wrote the captain.
