Portuguese translation:Lateral direito e defesa central para Parma e França
Explanation:
the fist expression translates as " lateral direito".

In Portugal, a player who plays in the back of the pitch is a "defesa". In fact, there is a saying that goes "jogar à defesa" when you are being defensive in what you say or do. This saying comes from the usage of the word in football.
Good luck!

defesa direita e defesa central


Explanation:
Meu filho jogou futebol enquanto estava em Portugal e diz-me que estes são os defesas....
o 'lateral direito' diz ele que não se mantém tanto à defesa, mas pode ser que seja o mesmo que defesa direita.

Good luck
