Tottenham Hotspur's Lucas Moura played a match with the U21 team in order to get back to fitness after his injury. In the stands he had a special visit from his teammate and compatriot Richarlison, who even asked for his shirt with a banner.

Player's injuries are the cruel part of this sport called football. A fact that makes you stop for a while out of obligation and try to reduce the recovery time as soon as possible.

Lucas Moura felt like a footballer again after more than two months on the sidelines. The striker played a match with Tottenham U21s in order to get a feel for the game and even scored a goal.

However, the highlight of this story was the particular supporter that the Brazilian had in the stands. It was Richarlison, who was at the stadium watching his compatriot's performance.

The friendship between Lucas Moura and Richarlison is very strong. So much so that the '9' joked with him and asked him for his shirt at the end of the match with a banner, pretending that he was a normal fan.
