They faced three packed, deep lying defences. Cameroon and Serbia repeatedly hacked down attacking Brazilian players.
Whilst other groups contained Wales, Qatar, Canada and Costa Rica.
Imho:
Konate and Upamecano are better than Stones and Maguire.
Tchouameni is world class, better than Rice or Phillips.
Hernandez on a different, higher, level to Shaw.
Brazil’s football is on another level to any other team so far.
A couple of dozen supreme technicians, with pace, vision and they can put the foot in if opponents try to kick them out of the WC.
Looking forward to watching Brazil again, loving their football in this WC, they have everything. Including the patience to break down mass defences and the Serbian thugs.
