Against Austria, last November, Firmino scored the decisive goal in a 2-1 win, and he again scored the winner in March’s friendly meeting with Chile.

Firmino insisted that he does not feel his place at the tournament in Chile is assured and that, while Dunga prepares to select the 23 names he will use for the competition, he remains concentrated on his own game. He said: “I have always worked very hard in my career. Always working towards a good moment. And when you plan, the rewards appear. When it comes to the Brazilian team nothing is guaranteed. You need to always play well. I will only feel part of the Copa América squad when my name is on the list and it is published by the technical committee.”
