Coutinho and his fellow Samba Boys are now preparing to take on Colombia in the notorious Arena Amazonia in Manaus, famous for its roasting weather conditions.

The World Cup 2018 qualifier will take place at 1.45am on Wednesday BST.

With the late kick-off, followed by a 5,000-mile journey from Manaus to Liverpool, the 24-year-old will have little time to prepare with his Liverpool team-mates for the visit of the Premier League champions Leicester.
