Souza was immediately transported for medical attention, while the match was stopped for several minutes.

"The biggest fear is now over. I thank everyone for the messages and prayers. God works in ways that sometimes we don't understand. When I see the images, I understand that it is a miracle. The Flamengo players and my teammates united for a single goal. I am sure that I will return," the footballer wrote after recovering in hospital.
