Lucas leiva... - Out of u-20 world cup...
Posted: Fri Jun 29, 2007 3:08 amLiverpool's Lucas dismissed from Brazilian team for the U-20 World Cup
Two days before Brazil's U-20 national team's debut in the World Cup, Lucas, who plays for England's Liverpool, was replaced on Thursday for Marcone, of the Brazilian team Bahia.
According to the website of the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF), the midfielder got injured, which prompted the replacement. Lucas was the team's leader when it won the South American U-20 Championship title in Paraguay, in Jan. The negotiations for his transfer to Liverpool were accomplished in May, but he played for his former club Gremio up to the Libertadores Cup final, won by Argentina's Boca Juniors on June 20.
Marcone is 19 years old and, since junior divisions, he has been playing for Brazil's traditional club Bahia, which currently disputes the Brazilian League's Serie C

they dont say to much, just that he is injured, hope it isn't to bad...
