Luana is a 20 year old from Ipanema, Brazil. She has a large following on Instagram only from being the sister of the famous Thiago Silva.

Luana is simply a worker at a local coffee shop.

Thiago was picked for Brazil's 2014 world cup team. The world cup wasn't for months but they had to start preparing.

Luana and her brother grew up in a favela on the outskirts of Ipanema. They used to always sneak off to field to play football.

Luana still had a joy for football so when Thiago invited her to a team event she agreed.

Because everyone on the national team didn't really know each other personally, they had to do team building activities.

The first one was a scavenger hunt, Luana thought it was childish but agreed to go with him.

Neymar is a 22 year old Brazilian who was also picked for the national team. He had heard about Luana before but never thought they would cross paths.
