"We are with Fred", "he will score", "it is important for the group" ...

- The goal gave me moral, came at a good time. I hope I never stop making goals. Now is a critical time, we need to show up ... The Neymar asked. He said: "Lets mustache you will score goals." But the truth is that I have made several times mustache in honor of my father - said the player, who finished five times a goal from Cameroon.

That is smart, Fred took the focus of pressure and played for the mustache. On Sunday training, Fluminense striker appeared a new look. Only spoke of it. The clicks were all over him. In carioca club, he had already adopted the look on two occasions: the Brazilian title in 2012 and for the derby against Flamengo this season. In the latter case, a tribute to his father.

- My dad will not let me take over. In the bid, David Luiz gave a crusade fight and made the goal of guy.I'm talking now that the goal was the mustache (laughs). I just shot up the kids shave my mustache in concentration.

To the superstitious, an important reminder: in the Confederations Cup last year, Fred also spent the first two games in white. But disenchanted against Italy in the third round, and took off. Was the top scorer with five. The path is now harder: octaves, fourths, semi and final. The first challenge of the playoff will be next Saturday against Chile in Mineirão in Belo Horizonte.House known for more than scorer.

Still on starting this Monday, against Cameroon, as important as the goal was the work of Fred.Unlike the games against Croatia and Mexico striker showed more mobility, more out of the area, came to the game, finished, gone, scored commendable ... that he was under the light of suspicion and supported by the loving protection of Expertise friends.

What bothered me most was not playing well 

Fred

- Vine suffering from these two games without goals. I received several criticisms, which ends up being normal. I thanked the group, which trust me, you know my importance, my quality. As I am completely dependent on them, just have to thank you for being part of this group.
