Adrian Martínez - CB, 27
He was playing in the Venezuelan second division just 3 years ago and now he’s scored in the Libertadores and made his international debut against a front three of Richarlison, Neymar, and Gabriel Jesus.

Francisco La Mantia - CB, 25
Four years on from a 7 minute cameo vs. USA, La Mantia made his full debut. A 2020 Liga FUTVE champion and produce of successful academy @AcEmFC, he arrived in Brazil as emergency back up less than 24 hours before KO.

Yohan Cumana - LB, 25
If England had a left mid problem in the 00s, Venezuela have a left back problem now. Cumana has done well for former national team assistant Daniel Farías at club level and, aptly, as part of a back 5. Nevertheless, a tough debut.

Brujo Martínez - RM, 26
Playing out of position on the right of a 4-man midfield of central players, ‘The Wizard’ excelled. He took on the unenviable responsibility of doubling up on Neymar and his energetic, hustling performance showed why he’s loved.
