Young goalkeeper who will provide back-up to regular number one Joao Ricardo in Germany. The 25-year-old plays his club football for Petro Atletico in the Angolan capital Luanda but has yet to make his mark on the full national side. Lama earned his first international call up after an impressive performance in the 2001 FIFA World Youth Championship in which Angola reached the last 16. During the competition in Argentina the athletic keeper caught the eye with his ability to save penalties so it would be no surprise should coach Luis Oliveira Goncalves turn to Lama if Angola find themselves in a shootout.
