Brazil
The Brazilian national team advanced to the playoffs ahead of schedule after two victories in the group stage. The five-time world champions, thanks to Richarlison’s double, beat the Serbian national team (2-0) in the first round, and in the second match they got a minimal victory over the Swiss (1-0). Casemiro scored the only goal in this meeting, scoring in the 83rd minute of the game.
In the final round against the Cameroon national team, the head mentor of the Selesao, Tite, released a semi-reserve squad on the field, allowing many team leaders to rest before the start of the playoffs. The match ended with a minimal victory for the Cameroonian team (1-0), which scored a goal in stoppage time – Al-Nasr striker Abubakar scored. The Cameroon national team interrupted the Brazilians’ 17-match unbeaten streak, but this was not enough for the African team to break into the playoffs.
PSG striker Neymar, who was injured in the opening match against Serbia, began training in the general group. The head coach of the Brazilians Tite said that the 30-year-old striker can take part in the match against South Korea if he is in shape. Jesus and Telles will no longer play for the Selecao in this World Cup due to injury.
