Antony expressed profound emotions about his return to the Brazil national team, considering it more significant than his first call-up. After facing difficulties at Manchester United, he found success during a loan spell at Real Betis, where he scored nine goals and reached a European final. Reflecting on his journey, he emphasized the importance of resilience, family support, and faith in overcoming challenges. His recent performances have re-established his position in the national team, marking a significant turnaround in his career since last playing in 2023.
"It was one of the most emotional moments. This call-up was more exciting than the first time I came here, and it was even more emotional because of everything I've been through."
"Even though I had no hope during the difficult time I was going through, I remembered many things I had experienced. I haven't forgotten how to play soccer, and I didn't make it to the national team for nothing."
