David Luiz diagnosed with hepatitis: "It's a worrying situation"

David Luiz was substituted at halftime for Flamengo's 3-1 triumph over São Paulo, a match that took place at the Cícero Pompeu de Toledo stadium, due to a viral hepatitis.

The former Benfica player presented, in recent days, a case of a virus, which disturbed his sleep and caused signs of extreme tiredness, and, after the final whistle, he admitted, to Brazilian TV Globo, that he was suffering from "a little more for real".

The confirmation would eventually arrive at the subsequent press conference, through the voice of the coach, Dorival Júnior: "I don't know if it worries for the next round, but it is natural that it is a worrying situation. I believe that, tomorrow, the medical department will pass on information".
