World Cup 2018 schedule

More than an hour before the match between Brazil and Serbia, the defending champion of Germany has been blameless for Korea, although Die Mannchaft has the right to decide his fate in finding the ticket in round 1 of 8. . Just win, Germany will continue the journey to defend the throne, but unfortunately teachers coach Joachim Loew did not do and become the third consecutive champions stop right in the group stage.

The match between Brazil and Serbia took place in similar circumstances. Brazil only need to draw their own fate, but if they lose, they also follow Germany leave the game. Selecao did not follow Germany's track, even doing what they needed to do, which was easily defeated by opponents who were also thirsty for victory. No longer is the stiff image of Neymar and his team-mates like the previous two matches in the group stage with Switzerland and Costa Rica. Last night, the Samba dancers played comfortably, handled the ball smoothly and having a 2-0 victory showed Brazil's level as well as the position in the race to the championship.

Under Tite's dynasty, he is trying to build a great team in the defense, ready to have quick counter-attack situations at the right times. Eight recent matches on all fronts, Brazil only conceded one goal (in the opening group stage of the World Cup with Switzerland), showing the certainty of the rear, thereby pedaling to the top Disengaged in the deployment of the attack.

Brazil is also proud of possessing players with superior techniques, creative play. This helps Selecao create many opportunities to intimidate the opponent. At the 2018 World Cup, Brazil lost only Spain and Belgium in exactly the same way.

In fact, right from the moment of taking over the coach of Brazil coach Carlos Dunga instead, coach Tite has implemented this philosophy and is gradually going to the highest realm.

"I lost a lot of sleepless nights when I took over the coaches, I wondered how to harmonize this team, how can I make a team of players into a team It's a challenge, certainly, "Tite said.

For a long time, Brazil was trapped in the legacy of the "Jogo Bonito" (Brazilian football school) in the 1950s and 1960s and its revival under the Tele Santana in the 1980s. The cult of Sebastian Lazaroni, Felipe Scolari and Carlos Dunga, is said to be "European style."

With Tite, his steadfastness with his stance helped Brazil to become more stable and scary through each match. In all three games in the group stage, Brazil are the only team that does not turn around with a single lineup (with Danilo missing due to injury, Fagner is substituted). This is also understandable, because it is the best frame, in accordance with Tite's tactical philosophy, to help the team active, ready to move from defense to counter-attack by taking advantage of the ability The ball of midfield and the speed of attacking players like Willian, Neymar or Gabriel Jesus.

There is a notable detail, most of the players in Brazil are on the maturity of the career, but in the defensive area, the experience of the generals is what coach Tite believes. Fagner (29), Marcelo (30) and Filipe Luís (32) replaced Serbian last night. Thiago Silva (33) and Miranda (33) are also in the midst of a possible World Cup. If Brazil win the championship, Silva and Miranda will become the oldest duo in history to honor the world cup.

"Not only now, but before the World Cup began, Brazil was one of the top candidates, with Germany, Spain and Argentina. Germany has been eliminated, football is the same, but Brazil is certainly one of the candidates
